Description

Mike Wye Limewash is traditional blend of our own superior matured lime putty, water and linseed oil. Limewash is naturally white, alternatively earth pigments can be added to produce a fantastic range of colours.

We follow a traditional recipe of adding a small amount of little raw linseed oil to Limewash which helps to improve the water-shedding properties.

Use a minimum of 4 coats of limewash on new external lime render, and 3 coats on new internal lime plaster.

Coverage

1 litre covers 3 – 6 m² per coat, depending on the porosity and texture of the surface.

Colours

Our Limewash Colour Chart shows the range of 54 fabulous colours at affordable prices including natural white. A colour matching service is also available for a fee of £40+VAT.

The online colour chart is intended for guidance only. Limewash can appear different depending on the substrate, moisture content and environment. We strongly recommend you request dry sample swatches or 100 ml sample tins before committing to larger orders.

*Note: The colours marked with an asterisk contain a blue pigment which is not lime-fast. It is therefore advised that they be used immediately when mixed or the colour will fade.
