Roman Stucco Exterior Wall Render
Fast-setting Roman Cement decorative render for facades, mouldings and carved detailing
A fast setting Roman Cement based decorative render. Ideal for the repair and replacement of decorative mouldings and cast elements, as well as plain rendering and imitation of stone. Classic Finish.
Stucco has been historically used as an exterior wall render to create highly detailed and decorative render finishes on building facades, such as those on the many fine Regency and Victorian houses of London, Cheltenham, Hastings, Leamington Spa and many other towns. Lime green Roman Stucco is based upon a Roman cement, a traditional binder invented around 200 years ago, which gives a unique and beautiful finish. Like lime renders, Roman Stucco is flexible and breathable and has excellent resistance to weather.
Roman Stucco is made with a natural Roman cement, still burnt in original 19th Century kilns. Using this, Lime Green have created a contemporary product that sets rapidly, with a fine texture and an innate strength which ensures it can be cut, carved and shaped with remarkable detail.
Lime Green Roman Stucco comes pre-mixed in paper sacks, and just requires water adding.
Roman Stucco can be left unpainted, to weather naturally. It will initially appear grey, but due to the naturally high iron content of the source limestone it will slowly "rust" to leave a beautiful golden to orange patina, a look that is almost impossible to imitate. As it ages over many years, Roman Stucco will weather like stone, developing a slightly mottled patina, making it appear ancient and natural. Alternatively, mineral silicate paints have excellent compatibility as they are highly breathable and are available in a wide range of colours; in either case you will end up with a durable, biocide free render.
Roman Stucco is available uncoloured or in a selection of colours, you can achieve colours outside of the available options with a mineral silicate paint.
