Product Details

Romabio Classico Limewash is an authentic, slaked-lime paint that is specially formulated to create unique white wash effects for Interior and Exterior unpainted brick, stone and other masonry surfaces. This Limewash paint is easily applied as a 1-coat process to a damp surface and is washed off with a garden hose or spray water bottle to create an antique lime wash finish equal to the look in historic Europe. Unlike German Schmear technique using mortar, this paint is breathable, high UV-resistant, and will continue to calcify and harden over the years and will not peel or chip off as it is designed for durability for the exterior.
  • Specially formulated for breathability on brick, stone and other masonry surfaces
  • After 50-70% dilution with water 1 qt. bucket will make 1.5-2 qt. of paint and covers 80 -100 sq. ft. for 450 sq. ft. / gallon depending on surface porosity
  • Very flat finish provides non-reflective appearance and gives the natural lime wash look of historic Europe
  • Resists UV damage, peeling or flaking, for a durable and breathable paint finish with no maintenance, unlike a mortar wash with German schmear
  • Can be removed from most masonry surfaces within 2 days after application
  • Self-priming, 1-coat process and is applied to a damp surface and sprayed off for a whitewash effect
  • Dries in as little 10-minutes and up to 60-minutes, depending on sun and temperature and will not be affected by rain or normal weather conditions after initial application

    Q:What primer is suggested before lime wash application?
    by|Mar 8, 2023
    1 Answer
    Answer This Question

    A:  If you are applying Classico Limewash to unpainted, unsealed brick that is absorbent, there is no need for a primer. Do a simple water test to see if your brick easily absorbs it. If you plan to apply it to an un-absorbent masonry surface, you will need to use a mineral-based primer such as our MicroGrip. It's important to note that the primer is opaque so you wouldn't be able to expose the brick underneath the primer as it is full coverage.

            So easy even I did it
            So normally I have to do things 3 times before I get it right. With this, I think I got it the 1st time! Really easy to paint on, wipe/spray off & clean up. Im so happy! I used Bianco white as I wanted it the bright white so as to match the walls. It brightened up my whole living room. Definitely the right choice! BTW - I used a quart & have alot left over. $35 paint + an old brush-boom! Saved alot of $

              Took a lot more than we thought
              It goes on easy with correct brush. But be careful to not do in the hot Sun as it dries too fast. I was able to power wash it off and fix what I needed to. We mixed it about 50:50 as it didn’t cover the red brick well otherwise. Took way more than we thought it would to do the house but it turned out nice!

              Hi STDX! We are so glad your project turned out well. Yes, some brick can be much more absorbent than others and that's a tough thing to predict. And you're absolutely right about the flash drying. It makes distressing harder sometimes and other times won't allow full adhesion because it dries before it's had a chance to get inside the brick to calcify which gives you the strongest bond. We suggest trying to chase the shade when applying for optimal performance. RomabioHC

                Super easy way to update that old fireplace
                My wife and I helped my mom out with this one and I think it came out great! I would however recommend mixing it with a little less water than is called for. This fireplace took the whole .67 Gal and the color was Avorio White. I used a generic deck brush and that seemed to work out very good. A great update for 100 bucks or so.

                  I LOVE THIS!! Perfect splatters easy so glad l watched YouTube videos and put plastic down. I recommend to stir it every know and then, globs sink to bottom. I used one quart and added two quarts water. First coat over everything then second just on slate. Made grout darker. Only took 3 hours to do. Wish l had done this years ago

                  Nice improvement
                  I didn’t care for the darker colored stones around our grill. Namely the black and dark terracotta stones. I used the grey lime wash product diluted 1 part product to 8 parts water. I simply dabbed it onto the stone with an old washcloth. It resulted in a less intense appearance which is what I was looking for. Great product.

                    Beautiful results!!!
                    This stuff was great and easy to work with. It is messy but that's how it goes. Love that it takes a few days to become permanent so you can revisit and adjust based on the different lighting. I used avorio white and it is the perfect neutral white.

                    Love it! Wish I would have done it a lot sooner. I used a three to one ratio for dilution and it was the coverage I was looking for😁
