Not dg27

[Gilbert75]

Any one tried this... I've give it a go and it's almost unusable to apply the lime putty over existing lime. This is what i was given to use..

I used it but onto the substrate before scratch cost, can’t say it did a deal

I'm trying to go over old existing lime with overskiming new lime putty. Paint that gear on day before, then still soak wall down after, coz that stuff not a sealer, hence still breathable, but still cannot control suction... finding it utter nightmare..lol.

Can you lime wash first to try and kill suction a bit?

It's more expensive than dg27 as well

Apply a lime wall finish on top of the dg27 that might solve your problem pal, horrible stuff to use mind

Took me hours to finish a wall, and was not happy with end result...got loads more to do....

Do you have more control with dg27?

It seems to be fine with lime finish and don't really think it pulls in too quickly
