We do not recommend LimeLike for use on floors or patios.
LimeLike by Dyebrick, is a durable lime-free alternative to old limewashes. Limewash effects can be easily achieved without the problems of rub-off, dusting and flaking when using on internal and external building materials.
A careful blend of English white clay, quartz and mica, together with pure mineral silicate binders. LimeLike contains no cement. There are no acrylics, solvents, spirits, or any other types of synthetic binder used in our product: We have kept it simple and natural. All you need to do is just add water!
LimeLike will produce a more creamy solution than standard lime and is easier to apply with roller or brush, without dripping or running.
DILUTIONS: LimeLike can be diluted further to produce more transparent effects. If you are diluting more than the original preparation then you will need to purchase our LimeLike Fixative.
LimeLike is 'vapour open', so allows your bricks to breathe. It resists wind driven rain, but does not prevent water vapour to pass through it.
COVERAGE:
Average porosity: 1 litre covers approximately 8 sq.m (86 sq.ft)
Soft absorbent bricks: 1 litre covers approx. 5.5 sq.m (59 sq.ft)
Smooth dense bricks: 1 litre covers approx. 14 sq.m (150 sq.ft)

Available in a range of colours using the highest quality natural oxide pigments. The colours can be used to replicate similar tones expected from other limewash finishes. Different colour tones can be added afterwards using our Dyebrick Brick Tinting Kits. Limelike is UV stable and as such will remain vibrant and will not fade with time.
Limelike is more durable than standard limewashes and will last a lot longer.
The product is odourless and completely fire resistant making it ideal for all applications e.g . brick and stone fireplaces, plasters and renders etc..
Limelike can be diluted to produce a consolidating primer over old limewash before overcoating with full strength LimeLike paint
Limelike has been developed and tested by experts within the field of building conservation; this has been done to reassure you of a successful outcome to improve and preserve the fabric and character of your home. We hope you enjoy the experience.
