A high-quality plaster distinguishes itself not only by its whiteness but also by its water retention capacity and adhesion strength.

Hand-applied plasters are the fundamental materials for creating smooth interior surfaces. However, the plaster’s water absorption capacity and mixing homogeneity determine the risk of cracking, dusting, or peeling on the finished surface.


A high-quality plaster should remain workable for an extended period after mixing, yet develop surface hardness rapidly during the setting phase. This balance is achieved through the ratio of binder gypsum and the use of modified additives in the formulation.


The wall surface must be clean, dry, and free of dust to ensure proper adhesion. For weak or porous substrates, the use of a primer, uniform layer thickness, and adequate drying time are essential for a professional-quality result.
