VASARI Lime Plaster & Paint | LIME PAINT | Made from Natural Lime and Powdered Marble | color: Cement Grey #21 | size: 1 Gallon

This lime plaster paint really adds a modern and artistic touch to the space. The texture is very different from regular paint — it has a soft, matte, almost velvety finish that gives the wall a rich, handcrafted feel. You have to apply it with a brush, not a roller, and there’s no specific direction or rule to follow, which I actually enjoyed. As you can see in the picture, I painted one wall, and it stands out beautifully from the others. It’s not a uniform color — more of a textured, natural variation that makes the wall look like a statement piece. Highly recommend for anyone looking to elevate their space with a unique finish.

Love this lime paint. It gives a nice soft and slightly variegated color. The finish is irregular and resembles a plaster or rough cement texture. It was easy to apply as brush strokes just add to the desired effect. The gold gray was a bit darker than I expected, but it is great. Nice and warm. It did cover a lot better than I had expected, so have half the paint left over.

Oh this is a great item I am familiar with their products, my family did stucco work in Italy before coming to the U.S. and they recommended this company and product.

I was in the market for a type of paint/product to give me a concrete look for some added texture in my living room. I was pleasantly surprised at the end result! The paint is more goopy & thick so application time took way longer than I thought. However, I only used a large paintbrush as it gave me more of the texture I was looking for. You can really only notice the texture when you’re up close but it does look better than just regular paint. I didn’t buff it up with anything as I didn’t wanna mess it up! But I’d definitely recommend as a unique alternative to plain ‘ol paint.

The lime wash effect is really pretty. Happy with the quality of the paint and the lime wash/plaster look. However, the color is darker than I had anticipated. Looks more like the charcoal sample color then granite #25. I based my selection on a picture from another customers review.. but in their picture it looks much lighter than what I got. I applied two coats and a third pass to cover a few patches where you could still see the white wall. Definitely would’ve preferred a few shades lighter but overall I’m happy with it.

I originally wanted to do this wall in white/off white. After painting 2 coats with this paint in pearl white, absolutely nothing showed. It looked the same as the primer before I began. I went back and got this paint again in the golden gray tone. It is definitely a bit more beige than gray, but the color turned out so much better! You can see the texture, especially after the second coat. I mixed 2 parts the lime wash with 1 part water. It was thin and messy, but went on best this way. I did a thorough coat the first time and then a quick, random coat the second time. It gave a soft, marbled effect.

We used the buffing on with a sponge technique vs the cross hatch with a brush cloud to cloud. You can find Vasari videos on YouTube. It's a lot more time consuming than regular paint, bit, wow, the finish is beautiful. Now, the photo, even the photo I'm submitting, look different than in person. The color turned a cool blue toned deep grey vs a smokey charcoal grey, like we hoped for. Clean up was incredibly easy but would suggest using disposable latex gloves (I got irritated at one point, removed the gloves, and it stained my nails, plus dried out my hands so much my cuticles cracked). Also, I did find using it for so long would slightly irritate my throat, so a mask might be a good idea. Overall, it's a large room we painted, and this was our second gallon purchased. If I decide on this old world style finish for another room, I would 100% return to Vasari for it.

I love this paint! I was very apprehensive at first when I started painting my fireplace with this paint. I didn't think it was going to "soak in" like mineral paint should, but, to my surprise, it performed exactly as it should. The pictures from left to right show what my fireplace looked like before, what the pai t looks like as it's drying, and the finished product. I applied this with a rough paint brush and this is two coats. I still had a little paint left over. I also figured out that you can clean the surface with plain water and a sponge without affecting the finish. You can see the brick color bleed through while its wet but it dries right pack to the pearl white! Very cool
