Pent: 5 pressing questions about the plaster

Decorative plaster is mired in myths. Effective, practical and affordable material overgrown stupid stereotypes. And all of the ignorance.

Will fight: here are the answers to the most critical 5 questions about the "decorative" on the walls.





1. Decorative plaster — not for any of the interior?

For any.

It is not necessary to live in a castle with gold on each column or even in a large apartment. Decorative plaster is appropriate for small apartments with modern interiors.

Scandinavian style loft, contemporary, Provence, eco — friendly decorative plaster will emphasize these styles, make them affordable and viable.

It will simulate plaster, concrete, brickwork and cracked paint on the wall and recreate these surfaces with plaster is often easier than, for example, to make a wall made of real concrete.





The fact that in our country, ornamental plaster, became popular in the 90 years and since then associated with the concept of "renovation" and "rich". Venetian plaster and Moroccan do look great in classic and historic interiors, but no less effective they are in our "normal" homes!

 

2. Apply a decorative plaster very difficult?

You will, too. Without the wizard.

It turns out that most decorative plasters can be applied with your hands. If you are able to fix the sink and paint the door, with plaster you too, will understand. Read the instructions, watch the video on the official website of the manufacturer of the concrete plaster, and succeed.

Of course, among decorative plasters even the same brand they recommended only professional application, but there are for "house masters". How to distinguish? Look for the marked "DIY" or equivalent "Simply in application" in the product description or on the Bank.





There are separate materials, which suffer several alterations until the freeze. Well, almost any decorative coating, can be restored after drying, or if you have split off a piece.

 

3. Decorative plaster is expensive?

Available.

It is only at first glance it seems that the "square" of plaster is significantly more expensive than the "square" of painting a wall. Don't believe?

Before painting will have to prepare a popular basis, and, therefore, need a good finish to the plaster, and the cost of work is also affected. Before painting the wall need to be primed — adding the cost of primer. For smooth color paint should be applied in 2-3 layers, and if you repaint a wall, for example, green to red, then layers need even more. And even after all of these costs will be that most of the plaster stay on the wall longer than paint, and therefore, the cost of painting should be multiplied two-three times!





In General, I advise pomonitorit prices on decorative plaster: today prices of the leading Italian brand is more than acceptable.

 

4. Decorative plaster — only for rooms?

For any room. And even for the street!

Again the old myth says that the alleged "decorative" afraid of moisture, easy to come off, let alone how to apply plaster "marble" on the front of the house and not talking!

In the line of self-respecting brand decorative coverings you will find not only moisture, but also water-resistant plaster.





Fit with high resistance to wear? Please choose what will adorn the hallways, the office walls or staircases and even the floors. There is a plaster for street, have for walls, kitchens, swimming pools and bathrooms.

 

5. Decorative plaster — safe for health?

Yes, absolutely safe.

Moreover, there are separate ultra-safe coating. For example, photocatalytic washable hygienic paint. It has antibacterial properties against the causative agents of allergic substances, neutralizes odors, resists mold and fungi, has environmental properties.





When the paint is European certificate approved for use in the sterile operating blocks of hospitals, in the nursery of your child is definitely will not bring harm.published
