Any ideas? I looking for the "Lime?" plaster or veneer. They kind that
would go on smooth on the outside. I see manufactures for it but can't
find it. (USG, National Gypsum).



The hard coat (white stuff) is sold here at the brick yard where other
masonry supplies are sold. I don't know if the fill stuff is even sold any
more. I made my own using mortar mix and a little extra lime when I needed
some.

I will point out that Durabond 45 is easy to find and makes a wonderful
filler material. Topped off with some easy sand setting type drywall mud
and you have a repair that will stand the test of time. I have been doing
it that way for over 30 years.

If you have a large defective area is easier to chip it out, fill the void
with drywall screwed to the studs and lath and then skim coat that.
