This seminar will illustrate the practical uses of lime products for pointing, rendering, bag rubbing and plastering. You will discover the reasons for the strong link between historic buildings and lime and also its successful use in many other buildings including new build. Various techniques such as mixing, substrates, laying, finishing and curing will also be explained.
