Gypsum basecoat, lime topcoat?

Just checked and yes its Travis Perkins where I get my hydraulic lime (NHL3.5) too. The yard staff in my local branch are fairly clueless about product and more than once I have had to stop them loading hydrated lime into the van instead of hydraulic lime

You mean, they load stuff for you?

Yes! Potters Bar Travis Perkins stocks NHL3.5! That's my weekend sorted!

Make sure you open an account with them first as the "counter" cost per bag is very painful...

I have just seen this ..... fat lime based render/plaster will go over pretty much anything ................. much easier to use than NHL based material.
