An in-depth guide with step-by-step instructions on how to select, mix and apply lime- and clay- based plasters, renders, paints and washes.

Clay and Lime Renders, Plasters and Paints is a detailed guide to the selection, mixing and application of lime- and clay-based plasters, renders, paints and washes.
It provides step-by-step instructions for applying lime- and clay-based plasters, renders and paints, and information on the benefits of natural finishes for personal health, the environment, and for buildings. The book draws on traditional methods & materials for using lime & clay finishes on new and historic buildings, and also includes a comprehensive and up-to-date online resource guide to suppliers, practitioners and courses.

About the Author
Katy Bryce is the co-founder of the company Clayworks, where she works with lime and clay on a daily basis. She first discovered this technique when restoring ancient vernacular buildings in Cornwall with the other half of Clayworks, Adam Weismann. They then began to apply the traditional techniques and materials to contemporary 'eco' builds, and recognised the potential of using these natural materials to benefit the health and wellbeing of people, buildings and the environment. Adam and Katy are the authors of Building with Cob.
