Telling Lime - Lime
Paint Finishes
Telling manufacture a range of natural lime mortar products
for various applications including mortar, plaster, render, screeds and
concretes, together with stabilisation and consolidation grouts, mesh
reinforcement and lime paints and finishes. The natural hydraulic lime products
are manufactured using a modern day manufacturing process which replicates the
strength, porosity, adhesion and flexibility of historic mortars. the lime paint
systems consist of primer coats for mineral or synthetic backgrounds and natural
hydraulic lime washes and Corical Lime Putty Paints.

Lime paint finishes.
For painting of
Unilit plasters and renders and application over existing stable lime plaster
and render, stable areas of limewash and brick and stone masonry, we recommend
the use of Corical Lime paint, Unilit 15 P1 lime wash or Unilit 65F lime wash to
maintain the high degree of vapour permeability and ensure the compatibility of
the paint with the substrate. A Unilit 15 P1 slurry coat, or skim coat, is
recommended as a primer coat for Corical Lime Paint for mineral substrates where
a high level of damp or salts are prevalent or expected, for application over
cement or concrete substrates and for friable areas of plaster, render and
masonry to stabilise the background, allow application over damp substrates, and
provide a salt containment layer while the Lime paint cures. For internal
application over gypsum plaster, and synthetic water based paint we recommend
the use of Corifondo Primer Coat.
Corical Lime Paint.
Corical lime paints are produced using very mature lime putty, fine
quartz marble dust and natural earth ochre pigments which are inert, UV
resistant and do not leach out or dust. The addition of crushed marble dust
makes the Corical thicker, requiring only 2 - 3 coats, and harder wearing than
traditional limewash, giving a durability of between 5 and 12 years externally,
depending on the exposure of the site. This greatly reduces the future
maintenance costs compared with limewash, which requires regular recoating and
several coats. Lime paints have natural anti-fungal, bactericidal and
disinfectant properties and good resistance against acid rain.
They
are designed for use on mineral backgrounds such as lime plasterings, lime
paint, brick and stone and are particularly suitable for use in the restoration
of historical buildings and structures, and are fully compatible with the
application of Unilit Natural Hydraulic Lime mortars, plasters and renders and
will maintain the high degree of vapour permeability of lime structures and
Unilit plaster and render, while providing additional weatherproofing. They can
also be applied to modern materials and backgrounds that have previously been
treated with a contemporary or synthetic paint (in these cases, an extra,
stabilising coat of Corifondo primer coat has to be applied). A wide variety of
paint effects can be achieved using Corical Lime Paint, including colour washes
and by varying the dilution, number of coats or by using more than one
colour.
We recommend the removal of all areas of oil based paint, highly
elastic plastic paints, and synthetic water based paint prior to the application
of Corical to ensure a mineral bond is achieved to the substrate, any risk of
detachment sue to the incompatibility of the existing paint is removed and the
vapour permeability of the background is maximised. For internal application
over gypsum plaster, and synthetic water based paint we recommend the use of
Corifondo Lime Sealer. Please consult our Technical Services Department prior to
application over existing paint.
Corical lime paint is recommended for
use with the Unilit system and is fully compatible, maintaining the vapour
permeability of the render or plaster while providing additional
weatherproofing. It is usual to apply a minimum of 2 to 3 coats of Corical Lime
Paint, by brush or roller, with the first being diluted by 30% and the second
(and third if required) by 10% with water or applied neat. Greater dilution of
paint results in an increase in the number of coats
required.

Preparation:
The substrate must be free from all traces of oil or grease. In
case of doubt regarding the substrate please contact our Technical Services
Department. Brush down old flaking or unstable substrates and areas of synthetic
or modern paint. Friable or salt laden mineral backgrounds can be primed and
stabilised using a Unilit 15 P1 slurry coat. Synthetic coatings or friable areas
of modern existing paint should be primed with Corifondo lime sealer. In these
cases a coat of Corifondo is to be applied, diluted 50 to 100% by water,
depending on the absorption of the substrate.
Do not apply in temperatures below 5°C or above 30°C, or in direct sunshine or
where excessive drying winds are expected.
Initial coats:
Apply Unilit 15P1 primer coat,
Lime Primer 0.25, Lime Primer 0.5 or Corifondo Internal Primer
Coat by brush if required. Seek advice from Telling.
Apply 1 - 2 coats of Corical Lime Paint by brush or roller,
diluting first coat 30% with water and second coat 10% with water, if
required.
Finishing coats: Apply single
coat of Corical L:ime Paint by brush or roller, either neat or diluted with 10%
water.
Unilit 15 P1
Primer & Limewash.
A fine bonding layer based on natural
hydraulic lime and appropriate additional aggregates, designed to function
within the Unilit system as a bonding bridge between the weak substrate (old
lime plastering, reinforced concrete, old masonry, etc.) and the mortar/paint.
Substrates of reinforced concrete must be treated with a layer of Unilit 15
before applying finishing mortars. Unilit 15 can also be
used as a preparatory treatment for completely saturated backgrounds and will
not impair the permeability of the wall.
Unilit 15/P1 is designed as a lime
wash or slurry/primer coat for lime paint and is applied in a slurry layer using
a brush. Unilit 15 P1 can also be used as a bonding and/or finishing layer
it is applied in a 2-4 mm layer by trowel.
For application of hydraulic lime
slurry coats or Corical Lime Paint where background surfaces are excessively
salt laden, damp or friable, or for application over cementitious substrates, a
Unilit 15 P1 primer layer is recommended to ensure the optimum bond to the
substrate and to provide a key for subsequent layers of paint. Unilit 15 P1 can
be applied as a decorative limewash finish and is beige in colour, or can be
applied as a primer for Unilit 65F limewash or Corical Lime
Paint.

Beige (Natural) + 24 standard colours . (contact Telling for details of the range of
colours).
Preparation:
The substrate must be free from all traces of oil or grease. In
case of doubt regarding the substrate please contact our Technical Services
Department. Existing paint coatings should be
removed to allow a mineral bond with the background. The background should be
thoroughly brushed to clean away salts and other loose deposits. Where the
substrate is excessively dry it should be dampened down prior to application.
The mortar remains workable for 2-3 hours with a drying period of 24 to 48
hours.
Application:
Unilit 15 P1 can be applied as a decorative slurry coat
/ lime wash, or can be applied as a primer and stabilising layer for Corical Lime Paint. Where applied as a slurry coat water is gradually added to allow
application by brush, generally 0.24l/kg or 7.2litres per 30 kg bag are
required, mechanically mixed for 3 to 4 minutes, the proportion of water to be
added is dependent on the required effect. Unilit 15 P1 Limewash is applied in 2
coats by brush with the second caot applied at least 24 hours after the first
coat. Unilit 15 P1 can be applied to follow
the contours of plaster, render or masonry. Unilit 15 P1
can also be applied to damp or friable backgrounds prior to decoration with
Corical Lime Paint.
Do not apply in temperatures below 5°C or above 30°C, or in direct
sunshine or where excessive drying winds are expected.
Corifondo Primer Coat.
Corifondo primer coat - A vapour-permeable primer coat designed for
unstable and synthetic base surfaces, such as cement based substrates,
plasterboard systems and synthetic paints. The product will make dusty base
surfaces sound and will give the paint or top coats a more uniform effect due to
a more even absorption of water.
Standard colour: Milky white, but can be
tinted with Coridecor dyes (Stabilcori) - contact Telling for

Corisilk - Silicate Mineral
Paint
Corisilk is a non skim forming, pigmented mineral paint,
which works by absorption in to the substrate and penetrates deep into porous
background surfaces, reacting chemically (crystallisation/silicification),
forming an insoluble part of the background surface. Corisilk is very vapour
permeable maintaining the breathability of the structure, has a natural,
inorganic structure and prevents the formation of mould and bacteria.
The
intrinsic properties of Corisilk make the product highly resistant to air
pollution and suitable for application in any climate - even the harshest. The
mineral appearance makes Corisilk suitable for use in new and historic centres,
on new, old or reconstructed buildings. Corisilk is odourless and
non-allergenic.
Corisilk is applied to solid and porous background
surfaces, seasoned, clean, dry plaster, exposed brickwork, insulating bricks and
blocks, and surfaces free from polluting substances, oil and
grease.
Corisilk is applied by brush in temperatures between
5oC and 35oC. Do not apply in high winds or direct
sunlight.
Priming with Fondosilk stabiliser is recommended where the
background is dry or particularly absorbent and where varying degrees of
background absorption are evident. Fondosilk is a ready to use 1 coat primer
applied by brush. In high temperatures and where the primer is dry, the
background should be lightly dampened, using a low pressure spray, to control
suction, before applying the first coat of Corisilk.
For the first coat of
Corisilk, applied by brush, Corisilk should first be mixed with 20% Fondosilk
and then diluted with 20% to 30% water depending on the absorption of the
background surface and on the atmospheric conditions.
The second coat of
Corisilk is diluted only with water from 20% to 30%, again depending on the
background and conditions, and applied by brush.
