[GSBN] Sticking clay on top of lime?

[Catarina Pinto]

Hi Rikki, 

as it is so uneven and rough I guess if you start with a clay slip like in the straw you will menage to create a bound between the two different materials. Good luck and share the results :)

However, although the existing finish is quite irregular, most of the stones are covered with lime or lime wash. Has anyone tried sticking a clay plaster on top of lime? I have never done that. I am worried that over time it will fall off.
