GECO LIME finish

BREATHABLE FINISHING SKIM COAT BASED ON NATURAL HYDRAULIC LIME

GECO LIME finish is the breathable finishing skim coat of the GECO line, based on NHL 5 natural hydraulic lime and classified as a rehabilitation mortar (EN 998-1 R). It closes the dehumidifying cycle with an extra-smooth surface, without blocking the vapour leaving the wall.

With a maximum grain of 0.5 mm and a soft, workable consistency it is quick to apply in 1-5 mm coats, with an alkali-resistant mesh embedded in the first coat. Controlled shrinkage minimises cracking, and the finished surface is ready for breathable paints.
