How to Apply

Prepare Your Surface

Clean & Repair: Wipe down your walls to remove dust and dirt. Fill any holes or cracks, and sand smooth.

Prime: Apply an acrylic-based primer, especially important for non-porous surfaces like drywall. Allow it to dry fully.

Protect Surroundings

Use painter's tape to shield baseboards, ceilings, and trim.

Lay down a drop cloth to cover your floors and furnishings.

Apply the First Coat

Mix Thoroughly: Stir the limewash paint well... pigments naturally settle at the bottom.

Dip Your Brush: Use a block brush. Dip only the tip into the paint, avoid soaking the whole brush.

Apply with Movement

Use irregular strokes, such as "X" shapes or cloud-like patterns.

Work in small sections to keep a wet edge, allowing for seamless blending.

Avoid Patterns

Overlap your brushstrokes randomly. The beauty of limewash lies in its organic finish.

Dry Time

Let the first coat dry for at least two hours before applying another layer or touch-ups.
