Thats cos its not gypsum and you need to be patient.
The Limelight I have used is just a cement based, waterproof backing plaster ..... and it always said skim with board finish?
As for breathing, shame the poor bugger knocking the dusty shite up can't breathe.

cheers for the reply, 2 coats of the same mix and would I use a float/sponge to finish or just me trowel?
it doesn't matter if same mix or not , I don't use a sponge I cant comment on that, two trowels with water leave it as long as you can then give it a flick without water(cross)
you will find it stiffens up quickly, just knock it up on your hand board/hawk its one of them plasters you don't mess with ,if you do you end up softening it up on the wall
