Hi Ilia

Could you tell me if ground dolomite is suitable to use with lime putty for freco, I was offered a free 50kg bag so I thought I'd find out first.

I hope this is not an impropriate question.

thanks

Hi Ed,

You should not use dolomitic lime (dolomite) for fresco. Dolomitic lime contains magnesium and this thing is no good.

You need high calcium lime

I will write "why is it so" later. Or someone else may do it earlier than me.
