Ok. I understand Stearic acid as fat from the soap . I have been using it for the last few years for the finishing works in a restoration project in Italy. Here we get an olive oil soap with the colour removed. Our marble dust is graded , our lime is aged underwater. In use since Roman times. Thank-you both for concise and practical advise.

I've been waiting for this one! Grateful for the information about polished lime. You've got me Googling for a marble dust alternative.. as it's unavailable in large quantities unless you are a pool builder. I wonder if powderized eggshells have enough calcium carbonate.. or even oyster shell powder.. hmm. Thanks for the gift of learning today🎉

There are so many types of lime. When you say lime, in europeans countries there is NHL 2 , 3.5, 5 hydraulic lime and also air lime , Quicklime, Hydrated lime etc.. What do you use in India?

You are lucky you have so many grades of lime readily available. It's not so easy here, as cement has really taken over! We used quick lime for foundations (and then hydrated it) and standardised hydrated lime for plasters.

Excellent video. Hope you will make more of these in detail for people who want to construct using lime. May be you should start a learning course. A question.. is calcium stearate or using marble dust to achieve smooth finish considered sustainable, reversible and eco friendly? Just trying to figure out whether it goes well with Mother Nature.

@farmaanandaa

The calcium stearate layer is a few microns thick. The marble lime mix layer is a few mm thick. I am not sure what happens when it's recycled or removed, but I think the volume won't be much.

Wonderful. Building in Uttarakhand, and trained breifly in natural building. Will reach out to seek help with lime mortar and plaster.

Have excavated polished lime, rammed earth floors at archaeological sites but didn't think it could be done in today's concepts! I'm allergic to chemical paints and this looks like the perfect alternative. Where can I find more information about this technique? Also masons who specialize in it?

Hello, the lime surface finish is suitable in heavy rain regions? I am from Kerala. We have rain here more than six months. Is it suitable for our climate?

Mam, you've really done a very good venture. You are a very good teacher and explainer. I watch all your videos. About this video, I just wander what type of roof can be build for a house which is build using lime as binding material. Can a two story house be build using lime.

Hi, I missed one thing here, is the marble powder mixed with sand & lime during plaster, or, is it lime + marble powder as a "putty" equivalent on top of the plastered surface?

Can polished lime be used on exterior surfaces, or is it only suited for interior surfaces.

Lime is a binder like cement. You'll have to use blocks, bricks or earth to make your walls. Sustainability will depend on what else you use
