Contour Brick & Stone Repair
Lime Green's Contour is a mortar for re-creating, imitating and patch repairing bricks and natural stones in a wide range of hues and colours. Contour can be carved, sanded, dressed and shaped like stone to give a uniquely convincing look and feel. Our technical team can offer colour matching to the original masonry to help you achieve a near-invisible stone or brick repair.
This method is sometimes called "plastic" repair, not because it is based on latex, but rather from the old fashioned meaning of the word; you sculpt and shape Contour to the final shape and texture you desire.

Consumption
Approximately 1.6 kg of dry mortar is required per litre. A 25 kg bag yields around 15 litres of mortar.

Store in a dry place free from damp and drafts. Use within 6 months.
Handling and Cleaning
Wear suitable PPE, including gloves, dust mask and goggles. Do not breathe the dust. Wash any dust or mixed materials off skin straight away with plenty of clean water. Wash tools with clean water.
Surface Preparation
The background must be assessed before work commences for the cause of decay and the compatibility of the repair mix, including its porosity, strength and capillary uptake. Remove any loose or friable masonry, and any contamination. Stone or bricks that are heavily salt contaminated may not be suitable. Highly porous backgrounds should be primed the day before with Silic8 PS1 primer, after checking for compatibility. Ensure the background is suitable for supporting the weight of the new material (10 mm of Contour over 1 m2 weighs approximately 20 kg). Brass armatures or stainless-steel lath may be required to support the mix, especially on thicker build-ups.
