Designing with Rockcote Lime Plaster
What Is Rockcote Lime Plaster?
Rockcote Lime Plaster, similar to lime render, is a fine-grained, natural plaster made from hydraulic lime. Designed for both internal and external use, it can be tinted with alkali-resistant pigments to achieve a wide range of colours and finishes. From a classic float finish to artisanal decorative techniques, this plaster is perfect for creating unique and personalised designs.
Unlike modern coatings, lime plaster develops a natural patina over time, adding depth and character to any surface. Additionally, it contains no Portland Cement and has zero VOCs, making it a healthier and more sustainable choice for your home.

Curing Render During Dry Weather

Information on Curing Render During Dry Weather
During cool, dry weather, Rockcote often receives feedback that render can dry soft and powdery. Before concluding that something is wrong with the render, we would like to offer some information to our customers.
To form concrete, 3 components are required: Cement + Sand + Water = Concrete
It is a common misconception that water is used simply to mix the concrete and when it dries the concrete should be hard. In fact, water is required along with cement and sand to form concrete. During the mixing process, the addition of water causes a chemical reaction to occur. This is referred to as ‘hydration’. The rest of the water is then lost to the air via drying.
The formation of concrete takes time.

What to consider when applying Rockcote Products over Waterproofing Membranes
Due to the vast number of waterproofing membranes (https://rockcote.com.au/resources/what-to-consider-when-applying-rockcote-products-over-waterproofing-membranes/) on the market, it is the responsibility of the applicator to verify with the waterproofing coating company that a cementitious product can be applied over the selected waterproofing membrane. Additionally, if the waterproofing does not perform well due to water ingress over time, Rockcote cannot take responsibility for the failure.
It is important to note that Rockcote always recommends an adhesion test be carried out using Rockcote Keycote or *Rockcote High Adhesion Primer prior to application of subsequent renders and textures to ensure adequate adhesion to the waterproof membrane.
