In simple terms, plaster refers to the coating put on the plain wall to cover the cement and the brick structure of the wall. This coating helps to protect the internal walls from any damage. Depending on the mixing techniques, several types of plasters are available in the industry. There are many plaster options available, and they are used for different purposes. The most common plasters are composed of gypsum, lime and cement. Hire professional plasterers in Hampshire who can easily apply the different plasters mentioned below.
What are the different types of plasters?
Browning plaster
This plaster is generally used as an undercoat for painting the walls. This is a useful material for building up walls. They are quickly absorbed, and you can create decorative designs and let you paint your walls easily. You need a day and dry weather for browning plaster to dry off easily.
Hardwall plaster
In case your walls are constructed using bricks only, then the hard wall plaster coat acts as a protective layer on top of these types of walls. This is an ideal base to work with. However, if the wall condition is poor, the application of the hardwall plaster will not fetch you a good result. Hence, contractors prefer using hardwall plaster on the new walls and good structures so that the plaster doesn’t crumble off.
One coat plaster
One coat plasters are the type of plaster used as an undercoat and finish with equal efficiency. It is a popular variant of plaster and can be easily used for all walls. This plaster material is a mixture of the traditional gypsum, and one single coat of plaster is thick enough. It doesn’t require a separate scratch coat on the same.
Bonding plaster
This is similar to the browning plaster and is majorly used as an undercoat. It can be applied on newly patched walls because it can stick to the wall’s surface. Like the browning plaster, in the case of bonding plaster, the same is applied at 8 mm for the ceilings and 11 mm for the walls.
