Lime Green's Natural Finish Render is a beautiful external lime finishing coat, which incorporates hydraulic lime and marble aggregates to give the finished render a durable and attractive appearance. The Natural Finish is available in a range of colours and textures, and doesn't require any further painting. A natural water repellent in the render protects against the elements whilst retaining the breathability of a traditional lime render.
The Natural Finish Render can be used as a protective coat over the Lime Green Duro or Lime Green Ultra base coats and can also be used externally as the finishing coat for the Warmshell woodfibre insulation boards.
The Natural Finish External Render is available in 22kg bags. We can fit 46 bags on a single pallet (1012kg)
Coverage
A 22kg bag will cover approx. 2 ¼ - 2½ m² at 6mm thick. This does not include any allowance for wastage.
Mixing and Application
Add the whole bag of pre-mix into drum or forced action mixer carefully avoiding excessive dust. Mix with clean water: add only 3.5-4.5 litres of clean water per bag. Mix for at least 10 minutes using drum mixer or alternatively use a mechanical whisk for 3 minutes. Stand for 10 minutes then mix again.
Apply over a previously applied undercoat such as Lime Green Ultra or Duro. Once the basecoat has hardened, but is still 'green', dampen the surface with mist spray and then apply the Natural Finish in a thin coat (maximum 4mm). Finish with a float or sponge
Do not apply in temperatures below 5°C or above 30°C.
Curing
Prevent all coats from drying out too rapidly. Lightly spray each coat with water if it is hot or the product is drying too quickly. Protect from adverse conditions such as frost, rain etc. Adequate curing of a final decorative coat should be more stringent, ideally using a fully sheeted scaffold when outside.
Do not apply in temperatures below 5°C or above 30°C.
