<div class="">People drawn to natural building have hopes and dreams. Generally, that is a good thing. It is also frequently a problem, when our hopes and dreams lead us to try things that are risky, or known to fail. How does a professional builder work
with a client, who wants to follow a dream instead of the knowledge and experience of the natural building community? </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Perhaps some small-scale experimentation can show the clients what they may face in trying to apply clay over lime wash. Success can only occur if this specific clay can bond well to this specific lime. A small test may show that adhesion is
a problem. Unfortunately, a test can’t show what happens over time. </div>

<div class="" style="word-wrap: break-word; line-break: after-white-space;"><span class="" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue;">Hi all, </span>
<div class="" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue;"><br class="">
</div>
<div class="" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue;">I have an unusual request. A couple who has been repairing an old stone home with lime mortar want to finish with clay plasters inside. 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. </div>
<div class="" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue;"><br class="">
</div>
<div class="" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue;">I had thought to add a bit of lime to the clay mix in order to help it stick, but I would rather avoid it if possible. It would be great to be able to work without gloves…</div>
<div class="" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue;"><br class="">
</div>
<div class="" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue;">I am attaching photos of the lime-finished wall, in case that helps.</div>
<div class="" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue;"><br class="">

<div class="" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue;">Thanks! </div>
