Venetian plaster is a reliable way to finish ceilings or house walls, which will help for a long time to forget about cosmetic repairs. And if more precisely, this is a type of decorative plaster, with which you can mimic the texture and color of the onyx, marble, granite and other natural stones.
Venetian plaster recently won a special popularity in the construction market. No wonder it is called "queen of all decorative plasters." The thing is that it is not only environmentally friendly, but also easily clean, has an excellent appearance and can turn any house into a luxury palace. But there are two drawbacks to which special attention should be paid: firstly, its application is a rather laborious process; Secondly, the square meter of such plaster costs from 5 dollars, and this is relatively expensive for the usual consumer. Therefore, Venetian plaster is most often used to finish offices, restaurants, expensive hotels and private houses.
For the first time, decorative plaster, made on this recipe, appeared during the Renaissance Epoch of Italy. Of course, over time, the composition was changed, the technology was improved, as a result of which the Venetian (as the builders gently called it) became even more spectacular, reliable and diverse.
Venetian plaster is several varieties. Each of them has its own composition, particle size and homogeneity. Venetsian of high quality should be plastic, durable and adhesive, which is obtained by adding acrylic or other components. Apply it in several layers, and it is the top layer that is treated with a special spatula, which gives the material desired texture. In addition, the plaster is covered with natural wax, which makes it waterproof and wear-resistant.
Another feature of the Venetian decorative plaster is that only a professional can apply it. Of course, and without prior preparation you can cope with this task, but the final drawing is visible only after applying the upper layer, and, with the wrong operation, the spatula, you can spoil all the work on the initial stages.
Also considerable importance and correctly selected paints. Fortunately, you can buy acrylic paints for walls in online stores and in ordinary building stores. The main thing is to choose the color to the color, in order to make the drawing as spectacically.
A few years ago, Venetian appeared, which is not intended for the interior, but for the finishing of the facade. They are more resistant to ultraviolet radiation, temperature fluctuations and humidity. Before buying, you must consult with a professional. It is necessary to purchase this decorative miracle in a specialized store, since the counterfeit may be not only short-lived, but also dangerous to health.
