hope this is not too late for you:sealer - don't seal with a latex material unless you have the outside of the house done already in synthetic materials.
a sloppy mix of white cement with a bit of acrylic paint to bind it
( bondcrete is better....like the white tube glue material. mix it
2 parts gunk to 2 parts water and add 1 quart to 2 gallons of
sloppy cement mix) also add some mica if you can get it.
even better would be the sloopy white cement mixed with a couple of scoops of lime putty and some mica dust.
dunno if you can manage that.
limewash : you want to get something with a little bit of synthetic
in it (5-8%) so you can tint a strong eggplant colour in the material.
depends where you live. if usa go for italian materials.
methods: a large limwash brush is used. just wack it on,covering
the surface in a grid like manner work down the wall & gradually along. only cut in ( with a smaller brush) as you come to an edge.
you have to keep a "wet edge"
don't be too disturded by the first coat because the second coat
will make it look much better.
maybe email me

easier to find out all the things you don't know.
sounds like you might have some help from a painter....try and find someone who can use a big brush.
