Limestone with 10% Black Dry Dashing Crisp, clean and full of contrast, Limestone with 10% Black Dry Dashing is a pebble dash mix built to make a building stand out. The predominantly white limestone is shot through with 10% black limestone, with touches of light grey balancing the two shades. The result is a striking finish that works on both lighter and darker buildings, and because limestone has very low porosity, water rolls off the surface rather than soaking through. What this dry dashing mix is This is a dry dashing aggregate made up of 90% white limestone and 10% black limestone, in differently sized and shaped fragments of approximately 8 to 11 millimetres. It is sold in 25 kilogram bags, with each bag typically covering around 2 square metres of wall. The low porosity of limestone is the real advantage here, helping water run off and making it especially well suited to dry dashing facades.
