➤➤➤ Slaked lime, also known as hydrated lime, is an essential substance widely used in various industrial applications.

1. The importance of slaked lime:

➤ Lime is a good material for homeowners with limited economic resources, and it is used for temporary construction. Especially, lime is used a lot for the restoration of communal houses, pagodas, ancient architectures, and other places where the priority for the original architecture design is upheld and types of materials important for the spirit of the project.

➤ Even when the folk architectural projects are restored (newly built) according to the original structure and architecture, the walls are still whitewashed (not painted) because paint will destroy the sacredness of this kind of project.

➤ Although lime has many disadvantages of a "cheap", "backward" material, etc its outstanding advantages will definitely be noteworthy than the mentioned disadvantages. Specifically, the advantages of lime are: cheap, easy to find and use moreover, lime plastered on the wall does not seal the surface.

➤ In general, the wall can easily "breathe" through the lime layer. In a tropical climate, high humidity is very meaningful. When it is cloudy, whitewashed walls (especially thick walls) have the ability to absorb water vapor while preventing sweat on the wall surface. When the humidity outside decreases, the wall easily escapes water vapor, not storing water inside. Although water-based wall paints do not seal the wall surface, the ability to exchange gas at the surface cannot be equal to that of whitewashed walls.

2. Usage and notable features:

➤ Uses: whitewashing, water treatment, etc. (Note: You can rub the wall to make it smooth before whitewash. Walls will be as smooth as painting water)

➤ How to use: Mix 4-5 liters of water with 1 box of lime, can add dissolved adao, sweep directly on the wall.

➤ Net weight: 3kg/box
