Repairing A Wall Using Traditional Lime Plaster

 DAY 1
I,m currently in the process of repairing this damaged wall using the Traditonal Lime Plaster. There's an area on the wall that has been repaired (unsuccessfully) using Carlite Bonding. (Note: if possible I strongly recommend repairing using like for like materials). I removed this and replaced with a first backing coat of Haired Lime Plaster (this is a mixture of sand, lime & horsehair). This must now be allowed to dry and go hard before laying another coat.

                                          
DAY 2
Now that the first base coat of Lime Render is dry and hard (normally takes up to 7 days), a further coat can now be laid. This coat will be lightly scratched (as shown in the photo) to provide a key for the Lime Plaster finish coat.

                                       
DAY 3
Now the final base coat is dry and hard, the Lime Plaster Finish coat can be applied. As shown below.
