There are some hairline cracks but also some larger cracks and "craters" in the wall. I would say 4 to 6mm in ceiling and 10mm deep / 20mm diameter tapered holes. Any suggestions? Could I add something to the putty?

I was wondering if lime putty can be used as a filler for small cracks and holes in some older lime plaster I am trying to preserve?

Thanks very much. Are there any good tapes for cracks that can be used in conjunction with a lime finish? There are a couple of hairline cracks in the ceiling and wondered what the best approach for them would be?

Haha got me there. I perceive them to be white or yellow

Thanks very much for the advice. In terms of preparation before a lime finish what would generally be needed?

I am renovating my house in the UK which was built in circa 1900 and have exposed some plaster underneath a couple of layers of wallpaper which I have now managed to remove. I am not sure of it's age or whether the plaster is lime based, gypsum based or something else, thus how original it is...
