So, can you skip the basecoat? Yes. But there are rules. Allow me to guide you to these simple methods.
Lime Blistering is expected if a basecoat is not applied first. Read on.
Blistering in lime finishes occurs when one is unsure of the set times and you push your trowel down too hard, especially if the trowel is dry. Keep your trowel wet if you’re going to spread a lime finish coat of plaster; skill or experience is necessary.
For example, I just applied a finished coat of lime plaster in this video.
One must understand when it sets, which comes from practicing.
If steel troweled it too soon, the new lime finish could pull away from the bonding agent, causing blistering and spider checking.
If you are not sure, apply a base coat. It’s difficult for lime to finish plaster from a porous sandy basecoat, but easy for a lime finish to separate from A bonding agent; this learning takes practice.
For example, applying no base coat over Cement plaster, as in this video or Sheetrock, while eliminating the Basecoat process and using only a lime finish over Sheetrock, blistering can happen unless that person understands interior plastering materials.
When applying a finish coat of lime plaster over a glued surface, spread the veneer finish to the entire wall without over-troweling, then, when ready, smooth out the plaster with water and trowel it down with as few strokes as possible.
We use a bonding agent such as Quikrete or plaster weld, which is pink. These stucco walls were painted. Thus, it was necessary to apply a bonding agent to the walls. Otherwise, my plaster finishes may separate in ten years or so. All our finishes have to adhere permanently, whether inside or on the exterior.
