Hi all,
I have recently had 3 rooms plastered using NHL2 and am just wondering does it go hard after time or will it always be rather soft. It has taken a few knocks with people working in the house, laying oak flooring etc and I am wondering how I am going to repair these 'dents' before I paint. It's been about a month and it appears to be hard when knocked with your knuckles but obviously can't take a 'ding' very well. :roll:
What have others used to fill the dents? Should I just mix a little lime mortar up or use something else for ease.
My paint question is, can I only use lime wash on lime walls or can I also use any breathable paints? I am not sure about the colors with lime wash for the bedrooms and am wondering about my options. I will probably opt for limewash in the downstairs snug though.
Thanks for any advice.
