VASARI Lime Plaster & Paint | LIME PAINT | Made from Natural Lime and Powdered Marble | color: White Sand #12 | size: 1 Quart

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.

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.

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.

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.

I totally forgot to water down the paint before applying it 🤦🏻‍♀️ but I put the wash on as the 2nd coat and it still doesn’t look awful! Darker than what it’s supposed to but it did well! Only needed 1 quart for this 4.5x7.5 wall! Definitely recommend- just remember to add water 😂

This product would’ve gotten five stars had it not missed a crucial point in the instructions. When applying this line wash paint in a bathroom, YOU MUST ADD MINERAL SEALER! I was wondering why this paint was getting spotted from the water and so I did some research. Was extremely disappointed to find an article explaining what the issue was. And guess who wrote the article? VASARI!! Would’ve been nice to put this information in the directions on the back. Needless to say we forked out another $40 to seal it after we went over it again with another coat. Product had a rough finish which we like. I was going for a stone/ natural look and this worked for us. Coverage is good. 6 inch brush works well to apply OR get a car sponge! This added some new designs. My phone image is HDR so it’s extreme. Doesn’t look that intense for the designs. We went with the smoke grey one.

This product is absolutely amazing. I used one gallon in the Dolomite color to complete 2.5 rooms (office, master bath, and toilet room). I started with the toilet room for practice and completed everything including the trim and ceiling. I'm glad I did. I did not dilute the paint and it was very thick. It also did not give as much of the effect I was looking for. Next, I diluted the mixture slightly which gave a little more of the effect I was looking for and changed the color to an almost linen color (it comes off as more beige than grey). Completing the office, I wanted to finish the paint and diluted it a A LOT (mostly water) and the room came out BEAUTIFULLY. I also used a deck brush as opposed to a paint brush and it made it a lot faster and really pushed the product around. The color had a taupe-grey tone to it which I love. One gallon completed all 3 areas. I recommend using a deck brush and diluting the product. Will be doing my whole house with this now.

So, I have tried Romabio lime wash and this one. This one is FAR better than Romabio. Colors are more true to images. You will get movement in your finish with this product without using two different colors. Beautiful velvety finish, l will definitely buy again! This paint was also WAY EASIER to use. Looks better on smooth walls vs textured, but will work on textured. UPDATE: this will easily rub off of the wall. I’m really upset. I had no idea I was wasting money on a product that you can rub off of the wall with your finger. I prepped the walls, used a mineral paint primer specifically for lime wash. Seriously I took so much time. It turned out beautiful but it shouldn’t rub off so easily. After buying the sealer in an attempt to prevent it from coming off, I realized I was in a losing battle because the sealer just leaves a very ugly white film on the surface of the paint. Disappointed.
