Finish WP is a self-coloured lime render, which means no further over-painting is needed. Just choose the colour and final texture that you want from our wide range and apply, and the job's done. Finish WP is used as the final coat in our Warmshell external wall insulation system.
Special additives in the lime render reduce the risk of surface cracking and the development of algae growth. Finish WP also offers the very best protection against rain and other elements. This creates a long-lasting and stable finish with built-in colour that greatly reduces the need for maintenance and repair.
So, use Finish WP lime render and not only will you save on the cost and time of painting but then won't have to worry about paintwork flaking or being knocked and revealing another colour beneath.
