HOW TO PREPARE LIMEWASH FOR PAINTING WALLS?

It is worth to repaint the walls with limewash 1 – 2 times a year.
For the mixture to be properly prepared, it is crucial to precisely follow the instructions included on the packaging of the hydrated lime.

It is most often recommended to mix lime powder with water at a ratio of 1:5. Another method is to prepare the so-called lime cake, and after 24 hours, mix it with water until a smooth consistency is achieved.

Before pouring into the whitewash spray unit, the limewash should be sieved through a cloth nappy. This procedure separates all the large and clumped together fragments of the hydrated lime. If we skip this step, it can lead to the clogging of the nozzle's lance.
The limewash is applied with the lance, starting from the top of the wall and then moving down to cover the whole surface.
