TUTORIAL: How to make a lime stucco with REVAT® CAL NATURE?
Welcome to our step-by-step tutorial on how to make a lime stucco:
- Start with a ready surface: For your stucco to adhere perfectly, the surface must be clean, dry and dust-free. If you detect any cracks or flaking, it is essential to repair them before continuing.
- Prepare your stucco mixture: Take the required amount of REVAT® CAL NATURE and combine it with water in a container until a uniform mixture is obtained.
- Application: Use a trowel to spread the stucco over the prepared surface. For a smooth finish, trowel repeatedly over the same area. If you are looking for a Venetian stucco finish, move the trowel in different directions to create the desired effect.
- Patience while drying: Allow the stucco a minimum of 24 hours to dry. Avoid drying too quickly, as this could weaken the mixture.
- Polishing for perfection: Once dry, use a bevelled trowel to polish the stucco, smoothing out any irregularities and achieving a consistent finish.
Don’t forget that you are working with lime, a material that allows transpiration and is ecologically sustainable.
