What plaz can I use with a 6.1.1 lime

[ScottHastie1]

Is there anyway to make a lime morter dreamy like a freeflow mix? It feels so dead! Does float nice but i feel the effort aint worth It! All my plas says not to mix with lime!

Lime is a natural plasticiser, that's why it says not to add plasticiser to lime.

try mixing it properly.

You're some hero!

 

[raytheplasterer]

is it pure lime mortar your using or sand cement and lime?

 

[ScottHastie1]

Sand cement lime.

Tell me your magical mix Raybans save a brothers shoulder! I want details! Times volumes lets get technical

 

[raytheplasterer]

maybe put a very small amout of plas and only half a shovel of lime?

using plasticiser with lime will cause the gear to split,

try leaving it mixing for a 20 mins with minimal water added to it.

 

[raytheplasterer]

you need to use the right type of lime aswell.

Yeah mate it was the first idea but I'm on a Scottish island and the merchants have a VERY limited supply.... anything other than s+c is unheard of

I use silver sand with hydrated lime and always add Feb mix. Never had a problem. I add 200ml per bucket of water, key is to stir it up in the bucket
