To give you an overview of how our experts apply Venetian Plaster, these steps are followed:
- Surface is properly cleaned and any cracks or holes are fixed.
- Primer is applied which adds adhesion between surface and the plaster.
- Venetian plaster is mixed in equal ratios with desired texture finish and color dyes.
- A thin first layer is applied.
- More layers are added to achieve depth and texture. Each layer is first dried before applying the next one.
- To create desired texture, when the last layer is partially dried- burnishing tools, rollers or brushes are used.
- A thin layer of sealer is applied in the end to protect the surface. It may act as anti-crack coating as well.
