Interior Stone Wall Finish

[Eppilott]

Hi,

At the moment, I'm deciding on the finish to apply to an interior stone wall.

The room will be our dining room and I've knocked off the mortar so the stone is exposed. (There's an empty fireplace in the middle of the wall.)

Things I've thought of so far are :-

1. Render/Plaster.
2. Plasterboard (Dot/Dab?)
3. Just paint over the stone work.

I was wondering if anyone has any other creative ways of doing this so we get a cool looking dining room.

Cheers,

Gerwyn.

Point it with lime mortar and leave the stone exposed

Thanks for the reply David.

I like the idea of leaving the stone exposed.

Cheers.

You may be able to find a Microporous coating for the wall to stop it dusting and let it breathe. Any relation to Epi Glottys.the Welsh singer
