Limestucco
Lime stucco
Lime stucco with greater material depth, available in two grain sizes for different degrees of texture and surface expression.
The most material expression of Limecoat
Limestucco increases the body and texture of the surface. Its two grain sizes range from restrained finishes to surfaces with a more pronounced structure.

Finish and colour
Both variants share the Limecoat colour range, while their different textures alter the perception of colour and light.

Where to use it.
Suitability varies by grain size. Any conditions are stated.
| Application | Fine | Textured |
|---|---|---|
| Interior wall | Suitable | Suitable |
| External wall | Suitable | Suitable |
| Interior ceiling | Suitable | Suitable |
| External ceiling | Suitable | Suitable |
| Interior wet area, no direct water | Suitable | Suitable |
| External wet area, no direct water | Not suitable | Not suitable |
| Direct water contact, interior | Suitable with a specific Formma system | Not recommended |
| Direct water contact, external | Not suitable | Not suitable |
| Interior floor | Not suitable | Not suitable |
| External floor | Not suitable | Not suitable |
In wet areas, application is suitable outside direct splash zones; confirm junction details around showers or basins before specifying.
For showers and other surfaces in direct contact with water, Formma recommends Limestucco Fine with a specific surface protection system.
Gypsum plasterSuitable with conditions
Apply directly to continuous gypsum plaster that is sound, clean, dry and uniformly absorbent. Where repairs or differences in absorbency exist, apply Limeprimer first to even out the substrate.
PlasterboardSuitable with preparation
Apply Limeprimer across the full surface before the Limecoat finish to even out absorbency between boards, joints and filled areas.
Lime renderSuitable
Apply directly to lime render that is sound, clean, dry and uniformly absorbent. Where repairs or significant differences in absorbency exist, apply Limeprimer first.
Cement renderSuitable
Apply directly to cement render that is sound, clean, dry and correctly cured. If the substrate has uneven absorbency, apply Limeprimer first.
ConcreteSuitable with conditions
Apply directly to absorbent concrete that is sound, clean and free from release agents or other contaminants. For very dense surfaces or adhesion concerns, confirm the appropriate treatment first.
Existing paintSuitable with conditions
May be applied over existing paint where it is sound, well adhered, clean and compatible with the system. Damaged areas, repairs, uneven absorbency or uncertain substrates require prior preparation or consultation.
How to apply.
Standard two-coat system and a specific system for surfaces in direct contact with water.
