Lithomex is a specially formulated, lime based material that can be used to repair damaged stone, or alternatively create authentic looking stone designs. It is an extremely versatile material that can be moulded and worked in any form imaginable. It can be colour matched to any existing surface and unlike cement based products it is breathable and compatible with natural stone. Below are some examples of what can be done.
