How to use traditional style casein paint

If you find that a limewash chalks on the walls of your period home, you might want to consider using a casein paint (which is essentially a limewash that is made with skimmed milk instead of water). Casein paint still has the breathability and flexibility of a limewash, but does not chalk.
Here architect Neil McKay demonstrates how to mix and use casein paint, by redecorating a patch of wall in his own 17th century thatched cottage.
In this video, Neil Mckay demonstrates how to mix and apply the paint and shows the finish you can expect

    Good job and thank you! I do wish, at the end of your video, you could have shown us your completed painting job? But it is still very, very nice.

    Artists You can actually also just use skim or NON FAT milk and non fat dry milk power mixed into a stiff paste. Then add to tubes oil paint in a 50/50 ratio. Done. Dries in minutes for underpainting.

    Thank you for this fine presentation. I do paint analysis for historic properties in the US and have come across formulations for this type of casein paint, with linseed oil added, vigorously beaten into the skim milk and lime combination. I wondered if you ever did that. There are also formulas for lime casein paints made with milk"straight from the cow", with the fat content retained for the paint. Thank you again for this informative presentation.

    Can casein paint be successfully applied over a wall that has been previously painted with modern latex paint?

    probably not. the latex paint doesn't breathe like the lime based paint. Use a product like Plaster-Weld for the the casein/lime paint to attach to.

    So much misinformation in one video is actually quite bad.... first of all properly handled lime wash doesn't rub off, the chalking and rubbing off indicates improper application. Secondly it should be made from quicklime not from putty. Thirdly under no circumstance should NHL be used on a period property as its basically cement rather then air lime.

    Да, кальций содержится в сыре, белки - в свинине, а железо - в говядине, но вместе с этими нутриентами мы получаем вредный багаж - гормоны из молочной продукции, свиной жир, насыщенные жиры. И даже если вы попросите, вам не смогут дать гамбургер без насыщенных жиров и холестерина.
