over skimming with lime

[Russell]

wondered if anyone has ever done this.
I've been asked by a client in a cob cottage to over skim his lime plastered walls with lime plaster.
is this possible?
do I need to do something to the surface to form a key, or is there anything I can paint on to make it stick?
Thanks
Russell

Considering it's been done for a hundred yrs or more I'd say it's possible

excellent, thanks.
is the wall still able to breathe when you put dg27 on?
just paint in on with a brush? or roller?

Yep told by our supplier and Baumit that its 100% natural and allows to breathe. Roller or brush on, been using it for over a year now really good stuff mate [emoji108]
