The Essential Bridge Between Modern Surfaces and Pro Mason Authentic Lime Finishes
Prepare your walls for the timeless beauty of lime plaster with Pro Mason Plaster Primer Smooth. This high-performance, water-based primer is specifically engineered to create a powerful mechanical bond between non-mineral substrates and Pro Mason Lime Plaster Skim Coat color finishes.
Whether you are working with standard drywall, wood, or previously painted surfaces, this primer ensures your lime plaster adheres securely and cures evenly. It effectively seals the substrate to prevent uneven suction, ensuring a consistent, professional finish for your masonry work.
Microcement system use: Plaster Primer also prepares drywall for Pro Mason Microcement Wall Finish. For this system, use Plaster Primer on drywall before Microcement, then Lime Plaster Sealer for basic wall protection. Suitable plaster or concrete board is dampened before Microcement instead of using this drywall priming step.
Key Features & Benefits
- Superior Adhesion: Transforms non-mineral surfaces (drywall, wood, paint) into a suitable base for lime plaster application.
- Versatile Application: Can be easily applied via brush, roller, or sprayer depending on the project scale.
- Water-Based Formula: Low odor and environmentally friendly formulation.
- Fast Turnaround: Plaster application can begin immediately once the primer is fully dry to the touch.
- Easy Maintenance: Simple cleanup with soap and warm water.
Application Specifications
- Surface Preparation: Ensure all base surfaces are smooth, clean, and in good condition before application.
- Application Temperature: Apply only when surface and air temperatures are between 40°F – 80°F.
- Method: Roll, brush, or spray to achieve a uniform coat.
- Cleanup: Clean tools immediately after use with warm, soapy water.

from 200 reviewsCame out beautiful and better than I had hoped
Shipped quickly. Arrived quickly. It mixed easily and adhered to my spalling bricks. So far so good.
The perfect mortar for 126 year old bricks (granite boulder and brick foundation built in 1900). Very happy with the mortar and clear instructions. Thank you ProMason!
Worked perfectly. Stain changed color of existing brick to the tone I was expecting giving it new life and blends with other new finishes.
I haven't had a chance to mix and use the mortar yet. However, the customer service is great. They immediately sent a replacement package of colorant since the original had leaked.
Our project turned out wonderful! What an amazing difference. It completely changed the look of the house!!
Easier to apply than I anticipated.
My first time staining brick and I was nervous on how it might turn out because I was going from dark brown tone bricks to gray tone (before and after photo submitted)Blended my own color combo and It looks amazing.
The stain covers well and a quart did a good amount of surface area. The perfect shade was achieved by mixing 2 colors. It looks great and is a nice brick border update!
The masonry sealer worked great. It was easy to apply and dried perfectly.
So far, so good. It will take time.
I just tried the mortar out. Need to learn a little more about using it as what I applies turned white. Yes it was sunny and hot. I tried keeping it spritzed and ended up shading the work with tarps, but too late. I’ll try again next week since I see a cloudy day in the forecast. Marie
We took down the Wood pan line in our old home. Built in 1880. All the room is red brick. Except for this one spot that it looks like they ran out. Using pro Mason stains, I was able to make coordinate better with the rest of the room. Very happy with the results! It would have been impossible to achieve without being able to dilute and combine the stains to make multiple colors to match the variants in the original bricks.
Working out great so far
This was awesome. It mixed very well, and even though its still curing, it is very hard now. It was also fun to mix up a mortar by hand the same way they used to do back in the day.
I had my steps repointed but they were way to light and slot of cement left on the brick. These stains worked amazing. Darkened the mortar and made the bricks look new!! Love this product! I used dark buff for the mortar and mixed burgundy and dark red for my brick.
