Lime plasters and Dust Resistance

Lime plaster is a natural earth plaster in use for centuries. It can be found in ancient tombs of the pharoahs and in the castles of Italy. It has many home healthy attributes like making the walls breathable from moisture, resists mold and mildew, and resists dust.

Paint is a film of oil bi-products that covers a surface and does not have any of the positive attributes that limestone has.

I have a mix of faux paint and real lime Venetian plasters in my home. The top picture is of a faux painted room and the bottom is in a room where natural lime Venetian plaster adorns the walls. If you look at the blade for the painted room you will see a film of dust along the edges. The bottom pic of the lime plastered room has no dust lining the blade.

Lime is abundant in the United States and we have several vendors we choose from depending on the project. Lime can be tinted to most colors and it can be textured or smooth. It is perfect for all decors, home or business.
