Application Guide for Lime Concrete Textures

Lime Concrete texture is used to create a sophisticated, industrial aesthetic on walls and surfaces. It is applied with a meticulous trowel technique, resulting in a raw, tactile finish. This texture enhances spaces with a rugged elegance, ideal for modern architectural and interior design projects seeking depth and character.

3. Application Techniques

First Base Coat

  • The process starts with preparing the lime concrete mixture, ensuring it achieves the ideal consistency for trowel application. The first base coat is applied with precision, using a trowel to spread the mixture evenly across the surface, maintaining a uniform thickness. Patience is key as this coat requires time to dry completely, a phase that may extend for several hours, influenced by ambient temperature and humidity levels.

Second Base Coat

  • With the first coat dried, an inspection ensures any imperfections or uneven areas are addressed, possibly requiring light sanding. The second base coat is applied similarly to the first, reinforcing the texture’s depth and strength. Again, patience is exercised as this coat dries thoroughly, setting the stage for the glazing layers.
