In this episode we finish the exterior of the Hemp house. We used a silicate based, masonry paint from @earthbornpaint The walls of this house are made from Hemp and Lime which means they are able to breathe, this meant we needed a natural alternative to the usual type of paints available
The first coat was with a neat primer, followed by a 80% - 20% mix of paint and primer. The final coat was 100% paint.
Earthborn paints was founded 2002 and has been making eco-frindly paints ever since.
They have 48 different colours available.
The colour Matt chose for his house is Buttermilk.
