Plaster, rubbing plaster

Rubbing plaster belongs to the group of textured plasters. It is first applied in grain thickness. Then the desired structure is applied with a plastic smoother. Horizontal, vertical, diagonal or circular structures are possible, for example. The grain size of the plaster ultimately determines the structural depth.

More about rubbing plaster

Rubbing plaster is a granular mortar based on mineral or synthetic resin. Synthetic resin plaster is easier to work with. It is available ready to use. Synthetic resin plaster is also crack-bridging.

Mineral plasters are more permeable to diffusion.

Notes on planning

Unevenness in the surfaces that are to be plastered must be levelled out with filler.

Highly absorbent substrate must be provided with a deep primer.
