Romabio | Lime Slurry Custom Colours

Romabio Lime Slurry - Custom Colours Only is a made-to-order, authentic slaked-lime coating designed to create a rich, heavily textured finish on brick, stone, stucco, and other compatible masonry surfaces. This custom-colour listing allows you to create a more personalized architectural finish while maintaining the natural movement, texture, and old-world character associated with traditional lime-based masonry coatings. Unlike conventional film-forming paint, Lime Slurry creates a mineral finish that works with absorbent masonry, helping the surface remain breathable while producing substantial texture, depth, and variation.

Lime Slurry is a thicker, more heavily textured lime-based masonry coating than a traditional limewash. It is designed to visually soften mortar lines, fill shallow surface irregularities, and create a substantial handcrafted appearance.

The finished look can range from moderately textured to heavily textured depending on the surface, application method, product preparation, and amount of material applied.

• Ensure the surface is clean, sound, and free of dust, dirt, grease, algae, and loose material.
• Remove failing paint, loose mortar, and unstable masonry before application.
• Correct active water intrusion, rising damp, and persistent moisture problems first.
• Remove heavy efflorescence and allow the cause of the moisture to be addressed.
• Allow new masonry, mortar, and stucco to cure before coating.
• Mask windows, doors, roofing, metal, landscaping, and adjacent surfaces carefully.
• Dampen absorbent masonry as directed before application.

1. Prepare the surface: Clean, repair, mask, and dampen the masonry as required.
2. Mix thoroughly: Blend the product until the consistency and texture are uniform.
3. Apply the Lime Slurry: Use an appropriate masonry brush, roller, trowel, or approved spray equipment depending on the desired texture.
4. Work in sections: Maintain a consistent application method and avoid stopping in the middle of visible wall sections.
5. Build the texture: Adjust the brushwork and material thickness to create the desired level of movement and coverage.
6. Allow proper drying: Protect the coating from rain, freezing temperatures, excessive heat, and rapid drying during the early cure period.

Coverage varies significantly based on the masonry profile, porosity, mortar joints, application thickness, desired texture, and application method.

Rough brick, deep mortar joints, and heavier texture will require more material than smooth, uniform masonry. Consult the current Romabio technical data and complete a test section before calculating the full project quantity.

• Can Romabio Lime Slurry be made in custom colours?
  Yes. This listing is specifically for made-to-order custom colours.
• Will the colour match a regular paint chip exactly?
  Not necessarily. The natural mineral base, surface texture, porosity, and application method can affect the final appearance.
• Is Lime Slurry the same as Classico Limewash?
  No. Lime Slurry creates a thicker and more heavily textured finish, while Classico Limewash produces a thinner, more traditional limewashed appearance.
• Can Lime Slurry cover brick mortar lines?
  It can visually soften mortar joints and shallow surface irregularities, but the final level of coverage depends on application thickness and the existing masonry profile.
• Can it be used on painted brick?
  Potentially, but painted masonry normally requires evaluation and a compatible Romabio mineral primer before application.
• Can it be used indoors?
  Yes, on compatible interior brick, stone, stucco, and masonry surfaces.
• Can Lime Slurry be used on floors or steps?
  No. It is not intended as a traffic-bearing floor or walking-surface coating.
• Are custom colours returnable?
  No. All custom-tinted Lime Slurry orders are final sale.
