Stone wall

[s.p.t plastering]

I have a stone wall in a cotage to price tomorrow, that's dried out and needs replastering.

Can i use dri-coat? it's only one small wall, so don't really want to get the mixer out and use sand and cement.

Do you have to use dri-coat/limelite/s&c? on stone?

Also can you use multi finish over dri-coat?..
