Walls, once covered with lime for painting with water-mounted paint, it is necessary to clean from the old whitewash, sprinkle and impregnate with soil. Often it is easier and cheaper to bother them again. In addition, the lime has antiseptic qualities. Thanks to these properties, the whims of the walls and ceilings are recommended in schools, medical institutions and kindergartens. Teaches are used for both internal and outdoor work.

2. Tells with lime applied to painting fences, and trees are placed at garden work. Lime is not afraid of dampness, whitewashed walls in the basement or cellar do not require a secondary whitewash several years. After drying on the white wall surface, a durable crust is formed, which clogs small cracks and fastens a plaster layer.
3. The limestone layer blells in bathrooms, shower, pools and baths, due to the film formed on it, protects the walls from moisture, because It differs not only to durability, but also moisture resistance.

• bucket with water;
• brush or maclove;
• protective clothing (rubber gloves, glasses, gauze bandage or respirator);
• walling the wall with a painting roller is not recommended. When applied by the second layer, the whirlwind, the roller begins to "pull" the previous layer;
• the whirlwind of walls with the help of a pulverizer significantly saves the flow rate of the lime solution. Electrical or pneumatic paint products are used for operation, sometimes fit garden mechanical sprayers or even vacuum cleaners.

For brick or walls from porous materials, lime will need more. On average, the poll of the intersections of the average consistency leaves 1 m2. There is a quick lime on sale, flocking powder and lime pasta.
2. Lime Pushonka is divorced in a 1: 3 ratio. If we breed a pack of 2 kg of hawed lime powder of fluffs in 6 liters of water, then the resulting finished solution for whitewings is enough for 12 -14 m2 walls. The lime powder is poured with water and is stirred. The time of complete twinkling of dry lime powder is from 0.5 to 2 hours. From time to time the mixture is stirred until the formation of a homogeneous mass. The remaining lime lime are warm and the solution is fastened through a fine sieve or gauze filter.
3. Lime paste - divorced with water 1: 3 and after careful stirring, ready for use. As a result of the stirring, a solution is obtained, comparable in thickness with a consistency of liquid kefir.
