this is such strong hands on forum that some link locatated within the forum where all the smart ideas/receipes could be data dumped would help....rather than having to move through many posts to retreive _that really neat mix of limeputty/marble sand and???? for example.
limitation: is it too cumbersome to install?
might be worth a try.wonder if you can set it up...

>Joe, any ideas? or limewash how-to?
i think what differs with modern paintmakers might
be how clever they are with special binders.
for example: porters' distemper (an old-fashioned paint
predating the acrylics) is a beautiful material
and much more sound than the distemper i remember
when i was a kid.
it just gets me that it aint rocket science and i would
like to mess with what i put on the wall.
i think i learnt from one of gary's posts about the value of lime water....that surface water on top
of the lime putty.
cheers joe.
