Lime putty has a smooth and uniform texture which makes it easy to apply on surfaces. This offers a smooth and uniform finished surface which can be painted, wallpapered or ornamented in a variety of ways. A major advantage of lime putty is that it's an ecologic and durable material. It's obtained from natural limestone which makes it an environment-friendly material which doesn't contain other toxic or polluting chemical substances. Another advantage of lime putty is that it has a long life span and can hold up in extreme heat and humidity without degradation or deterioration.
