Lime Wash Base Coat Primer | Meoded | JC Licht

Meoded Lime Wash Base Coat


Meoded Lime Wash Base Coat is a mineral primer formulated specifically to prepare surfaces for Meoded Lime Wash. It creates a uniform, absorbent foundation that improves adhesion and helps the lime wash develop even color and its signature cloud-like movement. Starting with the correct base coat is the key to a flawless, consistent lime wash finish.

  • Dedicated lime wash primer: engineered to pair with the Meoded Lime Wash system
  • Better adhesion: promotes a strong bond and consistent absorption for even results
  • Two sizes: available in Quart and Gallon to suit any project
  • Mineral formulation: breathable and fully compatible with lime-based finishes
  • Interior and exterior: preps a wide range of wall surfaces
  • Even color: reduces blotchiness for uniform lime wash movement
  • Easy to apply: rolls or brushes on smoothly as a preparation coat
  • Made in the USA: proudly manufactured by Meoded, a leading US decorative finish producer
  • Professional or DIY: suitable for skilled applicators and confident homeowners alike

Prime with Lime Wash Base Coat first, then apply your Meoded Lime Wash for rich, uniform color and lasting performance. It is an essential first step for the authentic, weathered lime finish with dependable adhesion on any prepared surface. Start every lime wash project with the correct base coat for flawless results.
