    What is this,?

    Been to a job today and it was built 1970 ish. The walls are covered in this it's pink looking and very soft and chalky and some sparkle in it. I don't know if it's some lime render of some sort mixed wrong as I think it was a plumber that owned the house, so I guess he done the work himself...

    I would rather pay more for quality stuff than have to go back to a job for skimping out when it can be easy adding into pricing of jobs
