Decorative plaster The embossed methods of application. Types of decorative plaster. Gypsum or cement plaster - which is better

Walls from dry plaster - drywall must be impregnated with water-repellent primer, crossing the reinforcing ribbon, align the surface to the finishing putty.

All joints and cracks need to be hushed out with a solution and cry for the reinforcing ribbon

If the walls are freshly plastered by the usual plaster, then they need to give drying within 4-5 weeks, to the complete formation of the layer. Further depends on the type of decorative plaster selected for finishing. If it is coarse-grained, with a pronounced relief, it is not necessary to put the walls, if with a fine fraction - it is better to apply a thin putty on the walls.

General rule

Scaled Walls must be passed by small abrasive, well mix dust formed after grinding. Next is applied primer that increases the adhesion of surfaces. After drying, for many types of plasters, it is necessary to apply a basic, shelled layer of primer, usually white or gray, sometimes melted under the finish finish.

Look at the learning lesson, how it is done under the decorative plaster, video shows all the stages of preliminary work.

It is quite clear to the desire of many owners of private houses to give their dwelling a completely unique view. To the aid, they come relief plasters, which are made of solutions on different bases and are applied on the surface of walls or special tools, or imaginary, sometimes - completely unexpected items, depending on what effect is planned to be obtained.

Decorative wall plaster with their own hands is an excellent way to stand out on a general background. Before deciding on the choice of the desired drawing and the technique of its reproduction, it is necessary to consider various finishes. After the desired relief is defined, it is desirable to carry out a practical lesson, and plausing it in accordance with the conceived.

Some techniques of work with decorative plaster can be called art, as there are volumetric paintings from it with different plots, which are able to become an exclusive decoration of the wall of the apartment or a country mansion. Experienced masters, applying them, create real works from ordinary plastering, which set the style of the design of the room or the facade.

For a long time, decorative plaster was used for the walls of the walls, and with a change in interior styles, its plot drawings and relief changed, becoming more complex or, on the contrary, in favor of fashion, simplifying. She did not lose their demand to this day - in our time, with the help of such a technology, finishing both the facade parts of buildings and inland walls premises.

Most often used plastering coating, which in addition to decorative, executes also protective function, not letting penetrate moisture and dust to the capital wall.

For indoor walls, finishing with a homogeneous pattern or relief plot panel can be used. Choosing a relief relief to decorate the relief in the form of a picture, you can be sure that it will be guaranteed original, since twice portray in this technique the same drawing is exactly the same - almost unrealistic.

Reliefs applied on the wall typically cover one or more colors of color, which give them a deeper volume. If desired, when the initial color of the decorative plaster is getting tired, it can be easily changed to another. Moreover, this process can be carried out both on a homogeneous coating and on the panel. The paint is applied to the embossed panel with a brush and a sponge, and on a homogeneous surface - using a sprayer or roller.

Decorative plaster can have a deep relief, which is called bas-relief - it protrudes over the surface of the wall at 8 ÷ 15 mm, or to be practically smooth and allocated only by color. Today in construction stores you can find formulations capable of applying a relief surface when applied by a conventional spatula, and for some of them are used. special nozzlesmounted on rollers. They are able to mimic the bark of wood, high grass, layered rocks and many other volumetric drawings.

Plastering mixes used to create relief are plastic enough. They are easy to apply on a pre-prepared surface of the walls and convert into various drawings.

Fundamentals of textured plaster technology

Work on decorative plaster walls is carried out in stages, in accordance with the requirements of the developed technology. It includes several stages.

• The first step is determined by the picture that the walls will have to decorate, as well as the tools necessary for its playback. The sample of the relief during operation should be in front of the eyes so that it can be repeated its contours. This is especially important if the scene version of the panel is selected.
• Next, you need to prepare the tools that will be made of plastering composition, applying it on the wall and creating a relief pattern.
• When everything is ready, you can move to the preparation of the walls. This process is carried out almost the same for both facade and walls indoors - it includes cleaning surfaces from old coatings, black alignment, and then their primer. The primer composition is better to choose with antiseptic additives, then the walls will be protected from lesions mold, fungus, moss, etc., as well as from creating nests insects.
• Then a starter leveling layer of plaster is then applied to the prepared, well-dried surface - it will become the basis for the textured finish layer.
• After the starting layer is well dry, the wall surface is recommended, once again to create more high adhesion between layers of plastering composition.

• The next step, again, after a complete burden of soil, the finish texture plaster is applied, from which the relief is formed. In some of the applied techniques, the upper part of the applied plaster is compared into one plane, and inside the texture recesses that create a homogeneous, but chaotic relief remain.

• When playing some drawings, several layers of decorative plaster are required, and in this case each of them requires good drying.
• Further, if the keler was not added to the plaster mixture, the paint is applied from above the textured layer. If a uniform pattern has been attracted with recesses, then it is best to carry out this process using a spray gun. If it is planned to produce uneven color, then you can apply a sponge for a tinting or a brush. Paint must be applied so that it emphasize the beauty of the relief of the decorative coating. When tinting a panel, paint is applied in several stages to create a visual perception of its depth.

When performing work, you should accurately adhere to step-by-step instructions. Making any changes to the manufacturing technology of the relief may not affect the result of the design. Therefore, it is not necessary to hurry - it is necessary to thoroughly dry each of the layers, observing their order. It is better to immediately prepare for the creation of high-quality relief wall covering, it will take more than one day.

Now, when the general principles of wall design are known by applying decorative embossed plaster on it, it makes sense to consider tools that can be used for these technological operations.

Tools for working with embossed plaster

By placing the wall with decorative plaster and forming a drawing of the relief using it, the following tools use:

• To mix the plastering solution, drill and nozzle-mixer will be required. With their help, you can easily and quickly enough, without much effort to make a mixture of plastic and homogeneous.

• Spatulas of various sizes - these tools can be called the main in working with any plaster, since they cannot do without them when applying any of the layers of finishing.
• Or trusk is also quite common to coating surfaces with plaster solutions.
• Special mitten, which is used both to create relief and for its staining.

• Brush with hard or soft pile, plastic film, rubber gloves, sponge or plastic grid for dish washing.
• The use of roller and rubber nozzles to it can be called the most popular way to make the wall embossed. A variety of these devices allows you to choose one of the numerous textures offered by the manufacturer.

In addition, using similar technique, work is faster, and the print on the wall is accurate and aesthetic, however, it is impossible to call exclusive such reliefs. Tanning nozzles may have vegetable pattern patterns, waves, various curls, geometric shapes other.

Especially spectacular reliefs, imitating skin texture or wood crust, as well as other natural materials.

Nozzles can create a factory, located vertically or horizontally, chaotic or perfectly correctly - this factor will depend on the preference of the owner of the departible housing.

Texture plaster expands the possibilities of wall transformation, and the presence of a variety of tools opens the space in creating numerous drawings. It should be noted that the masters professionally engaged in these art, when performing reliefs, completely unexpected tools and household items, for example, wood cutters, blades for carrying out manicure or even ordinary teaspoons are often allowed.

Materials for decorative plaster

In addition to competently selected tools, you need to choose the optimal plastering composition. The range is quite wide, as many famous manufacturers offer special, which make it possible to easily transform facades and houses.

Starting plaster

In addition to the decorative mixture, it is necessary to purchase a starting plaster, with which it will be possible to level the surface of the wall, having prepared it for relief design. For this purpose, it is better to acquire the compositions made on the same basis as the finishing finish, then it is safe to say that a good clutch will be created between the base and external plastering layer. So, for the starting, leveling layer will fit:

• Stitching start on plaster basis. A distinctive feature of this mixture is a short time before the campaign start, so it is necessary to work with it very quickly. If there is no experience to equalize the walls, then it is better to choose a mixture that will give an opportunity for longer work.

• For example, a cement-based solution is perfect for both experienced masters and beginners. It can be bought in finished videoOr manufacture independently from cement and well-sashed sand taken in the ratio of 1: 3. For the plasticity of the self-made mixture into it, PVA glue is often added or liquid soap. Thanks to these components, the solution will become softer and at the same time - "lipuple" to the walls, and it will be easy to work with it.
• Sometimes it uses clay for the starting layer, which can also be purchased in the construction store in the already prepared form. Most often, the clay solution is used to shock the wooden surface, but recently the master is still preferred to work more modern materials. Although clay has numerous positive qualities, such as elasticity, good adhesion with the surface, environmental purity, and in addition, it is a "breathable" material.

Decorative plastering compounds

For decorative finish Special compositions of plaster, which are also manufactured on different bases. They are intended for a variety of embossed patterns, so some of them are equipped with various additives. On the package, the manufacturer indicates the name of the relief for which this mixture is intended, as a solid crumb can be used as additives different materialshaving a large and small fraction and giving various finishing effects.

The proposed table presents some types of decorative plaster, which are most often used to finish the facade part of the house and walls indoors.

Appearance packaging	Embedded Relief Figure	The basis of decorative plaster	Size of the fraction of additives, mm
		Mineral "Ceresit CT 35"	"Coroed" 2.5 ÷ 3.5
		Mineral "Ceresit CT 137"	"Cameshkova" 1.0 ÷ 2.5
		Polymer "Ceresit CT 77"	Mosaic 0.8 ÷ 2.0
		Acrylic "Ceresit CT 60, ST 63, ST 64"	"Cameshkova" 1.5 ÷ 2.5; "Coroed" 2.0 ÷ 3.0
		Silicate-silicone "Ceresit CT 175"	"Cameshkova" 1.5 ÷ 2.0; "Coroed" 2,0
		Silicate "Ceresit CT 73"	"Cameshkova" 1.5 ÷ 2.5; "Coroed" 2,0
		Acrylic texture "CAPITEL"	"Quartz coat"
		On the basis of white cement "Master"	"Lakes" 2,0
		Acrylic "Optimist-Elite"	"Venetian plaster" White thick homogeneous pasta

As can be seen from the table presented, the plastering mixtures are made in a dry and pasty state. Ready, diluted to the necessary consistency paste usually will cost somewhat more expensive than dry mixes, but it is much easier to use them, since you do not have to calculate the proportions when mixing.

Plasters, ready for use, can be used immediately after the primer can dry on the prepared wall. Upon completion of the work, the residue of the mixture is closed in the packaging bucket, and during the next step, the paste can be used, because in the closed it can be stored enough for a long time.

If you wish to create plaster your own manufacture, you can take a formulation as the table below:

Components of solution	Appearance and color of plaster
	Under white marble	Under Yellow Marble	Under the red granite	Under gray granite
	Number in parts by volume
Portland cement M400	1	1	1	1
Lime dough	0.5	0.25	0.1	0.1
Marble flour	0.5	0.25	-	-
Marble chips	3	3	3	3
Mica (from cement volume)	0.5	0.5	0.5	0.5
Pigment in% by cement mass	-	Ossociation 3 ÷ 5	Iron Surik 5 ÷ 10	Manganese peroxide 1 ÷ 5

Primer compounds

Means for the primer of the walls used at the preparatory stage are sold in a paste-like and liquid consistency.

plaster

• To process the wall under the application of the starting layer, it is recommended to use the liquid compositions of deep penetration, including antiseptic additives.

• After grazing the starting plaster, it should also be projected, thereby creating a good basis for the finish decorative layer. For this process, it is best to apply primer having a more thick, closer to pasty, consistency.

Each of the layers applied to the wall must be finally succeeded, and only after that the next one can be applied. Otherwise, the plaster can start cracking or flap from the surface.

Coloring formulations for decorative plaster

Can be applied, or they are painted before starting work. Sometimes the caliber is applied by the manufacturer to the package to the plaster, in other cases the color additives are purchased separately and also entered into the paste or dry mixture before hesitation or application.

Another option for giving the finished decorative plaster of the desired color is its staining with a spray gun, roller or brush. In this case, the composition of white or gray is applied to the wall, and then, after drying it, it is attached to the homogeneous or volumetric staining.

For painting textured plaster, applied to the wall, paints are used made on water based - These are emulsion and water-dispersive. Such paints are made in various colors, but if you wish, it is possible to give them a shade and independently, by purchasing a separate white "base" and the Koler like. Their mixing is made immediately before applying to the wall, and in this case you can achieve a darker or, on the contrary, a light shade, which will help to give the pattern on the wall volume and depth.

Varnish for decorative plaster

For textured plasters having a shallow relief or relatively smooth surface structure, a varnish or wax protective decorative coating is usually used.

Lucky can be matte or glossy, and are able to significantly enrich the color of wall decorations. Thanks to even one layer of lacquer coating, the plaster will maintain its initial look much longer.

In some cases, to achieve the desired effect of varnish, it is better to apply to the surface of the wall in several layers. For example, if the imitation of the grinding stone or crocodile leather is reproduced on the wall.

Wax is most often used as protective equipment for venetian plasterwhich can purchase after it applied a matte or even a mirror glitter. The wax does not smell and is an environmentally friendly material. It is able to protect the walls of the walls from dust and yellowing, and besides this - it creates a water-repellent layer, and at the same time has good vapor permeability, that is, the walls do not lose the opportunity to "breathe". Thanks to such qualities, the wax coating can be applied in residential rooms and indoors with high humidity.

The wax is made in a colorless version and retains the color of decorative plaster in the original condition. In addition, it can be melted with metal pigments or pearl additives. For example, the wax "CERA", presented in the illustration, is produced in three color options - It is a colorless, silver and gold, which allows you to enrich the decorative finish with a pleasant soft reflections.

Painting ribbon.

In some finishing works, do not do without the use of painting tape. It is used to protect nearby surfaces when working on one of them, as well as in cases where different textured or color drawings must be divided. The tape is easy to glue on any surface and removed, without leaving traces. It has a low price, so in any case, stroking all the materials necessary for finishing, it is necessary to purchase it as auxiliary means.

Buying any finish materials, it is very important to pay attention to the clarification of the manufacturer, which is placed on the package - for what works they are intended, internal or external. Many compounds for external use are well suited for finishing walls of premises, but materials for internal use when applied to the facade for a long time, alas will not serve.

Preparation of surfaces of walls

Now, understanding how to choose the material, and what tools will be needed for work, you can proceed to the consideration of the process of preparing the walls under the application of plaster solutions.

Preliminary preparation of wall surfaces

To get a quality result, it is very important to clean the wall from the old coatings well, with such actions are performed both on the outer walls and internal. It is necessary to remove the old wallpapers, paint or bliss, otherwise the starting layer of the plaster will be insufficient adhesion with the surface.

The main measures for the preparation of wall surfaces are shown in the table below:

Illustration
	Removing the walls of the old layer of plaster. This process is especially important to carry out very carefully if the old decorative coating began to peel from the overhaul. If you need to remove a thin plaster layer, then for this purpose you can use a grinding machine or a building grater with coarse-grained gear paper installed on it.
	In the event that walls are plated by wallpaper, the old canvases must also be deleted. Typically, the glued old wallpaper is moisturized using a spray gun, and this process is produced several times, since the canvases should get into the walls. After that, the finishing material is removed using a spatula.
	Another option for cleaning walls from wallpaper is an excrement. For this purpose, a special tool is used or a steam iron, and besides this, an air humidifier can be applied, which is directed towards the wall that needs to be cleaned from wallpaper.
	If the wall is painted, then the paint layer is also to be cleaned, otherwise the plaster layer simply will not fall on the wall. Removal of paint is made using a scraper, with softening old paint. Hot stream from the construction dryer. You can apply an abrasive method using a grinding machine with an iron brush or an extension with an abrasive nozzle.
	After the old decorative coating is removed from the walls of the walls, the leveling plaster layer will open or simply the capital concrete base itself. On concrete, the recesses and irregularities are often detected, which will have to be aligned by applying a spacion layer.
	If plaster is discovered good qualitynot separated from the capital wall, then it can not be considered. In this case, on the surface of the wall with an ax or chisel, notches are made in a depth of 5 ÷ 7 mm. They will be needed to ensure a better adhesion of the leveling starting layer with the wall. However, they often cost them without them, using modern primers like "concrete contact", which provide excellent adhesion applied plastering compositions.
	However, quite often the situation is such that the old plaster has to be removed completely, as it crumbs and unreliable is kept on the surface. This flaw can be discovered when applying notches, since when attacking in some areas of the wall, the plaster layer can "bone", and even just fall off. If the layer is separated on the large section of the wall, it is best to remove the old coating completely - the process, as they say, has already gone, and no one can guarantee that the remaining areas will hold stable.
	After the old plaster layer is removed, serious damage in the form of deep cracks can be detected on the wall. They must be neglected, otherwise they will turn on new plaster layers over time, and work will be spoiled.
	Detected cracks are expanded, that is, they are wider and deeper. Then they are cleaned and processed by primer deep penetration. Their filling is carried out by plastic repairs. Special repair solutions are presented on sale, and a conventional starting putty can be used for internal works. The repair solution should fill the entire volume of the separated crack, to the entire depth or width. If a wide crack is detected, then it can be filled mounting foam With a slight expansion. Her surplus, which protruded outside the material is frozen, cuts the flush with the wall. In some cases, to strengthen the crack and in order to avoid its manifestation through new finishing layers, a reinforcing sulfage grid is pasted on a putty solution.
	After repairing "patches" dry on cracks, they must be cleaned with a construction grater with an abrasive grid installed on it first, and then sandpaper.
	The next step of the wall is covered with primer antiseptic composition of deep penetration. If the first layer of primer is absorbed into the surface of the wall without a trace, then another or even two layers of primer are applied. The primer composition will penetrate the pores of the plaster or the material of the wall, will strengthen its surface and create good conditions For clutch materials. The solution can be applied with a roller or a wide brush. Each subsequent layer is applied only after complete grazing of the previous one.

On the primed and dried wall, plaster works can be produced.

Application of the basic leveling layer of plaster

The next important stage is plaster works that finally prepare the surface to further apply decorative plaster. Alignment is carried out according to the primed and well-dried wall.

Methods of plaster leveling of surfaces can be somewhat different - depending on the material of the wall and surface quality. But general technology Yet overall, and more about it - in the table below:

llycation	Brief description of the operation
	If when checking the wall with the help level, it was found that it requires capital alignment, then lighthouses made from special metal profiles are displayed on the surface on the surface. They are fixed on a wall in a step of 1000 ÷ 1200 mm, controlling vertically and horizontally using a construction level and a long rule. Consolidation of these profiles is made using cement mortar With the addition of gypsum or only a gypsum mixture, since this material quickly grasps and will not delay the execution of subsequent work. Between the slides of the solution on which the beacon profiles are attached, withstand the distance of about 400 ÷ 500 mm.
	Having exhibit beacons, you can move to the mixing of the plastering solution. It must be homogeneous, without harsh inclusions, otherwise it will be problematic to align it to the ideal, since voids that weaken the coating can form about large rigid fractions. Before applying the solution, the wall can be slightly moistened by sprinkling it from the sprayer or brush. The next step on the surface is thrown into a thick layer of plastic solution, which should be above the beacons by 30 ÷ 50 mm. Excessive solution will be removed by the rules when leveling plaster.
	Next, the wet solution applied to the wall is equalized by the rule, moved by the guide-beacons. Work begins with the bottom of the wall - the rule, not in a hurry, climbs up, while they move lightly from the side to the side to better distribute the solution in space between beacons. At the same time, the rule is gathering an excessive plaster mix, which can later be used to apply neighboring sites walls.
	Watching the surface, it should be left for 2 ÷ 3 days to set. At the same time, the wall is recommended to periodically spray with water to obtain a greater strength of the applied layer. Further, still wet plaster rubbing, throwing cement milk on it. These works are carried out with the help of plaster cells or grout, which is mesmerized to the wall and circular motions counterclockwise drag the surface, making it smooth. The dried surface is left to a complete burden, which depends on the thickness of the layer and can take from 5 to 15 days.
	The dried plastered wall should be well primed using a paste-like thick primer, which is applied using a roller. Inaccessible sections of the wall are processed by a narrow brush. The primer, made on a water basis, dries quite quickly, so very often after 2 ÷ 3 hours the ability to move to the next stage of work appears.
	If a we are talking About the internal work, so that the result of the wall finishing turned out to be high-quality, the aligning plaster layer is recommended to apply thin, at 1.5 ÷ 2.0 mm, layer of plaster on the plaster basis. It will make the surface smooth, correcting all the shortcomings of the base layer. The plaster is applied by metal culma or a wide spatula, producing semicircular movements. It must be remembered that gypsum mix It is impossible to quickly set up and hardened, so it is impossible to knead a large amount of solution, since "revive" its addition to the addition of water will not succeed. It should be noted that as this starting layer, the decorative plaster can also use a ready-made mixture on a cement basis, or one of the common plaqua compositions. After driving this layer, it must be primed.

Decorative Plaster - Application and Coloring

When all leveling layers are dried, and the wall will be fully prepared, one can move to the finishing stage of the work - applying a decorative plastering layer.

Several popular ways of applying relief

This is perhaps the most interesting creative process, upon completion of which the wall will acquire a completely updated look. For such a stage, a decorative paste-like plaster mass is used or a dry mixture that is kneaded alone, just like the base solution, that is, using a mixer installed on an electric drill.

In any case, the mass should be plastic and homogeneous, if, of course, such a coating is not chosen as "cored" or "lamb", which has in its composition additives from stone crumb. But even with this solution, solid fractions should host in a plastic mass completely evenly.

Illustration	Brief description of the operation
	Venetian plaster can have a different pattern of relief, but it is always shallow and chaotic. However, sometimes it is a background for clear geometric or vegetable drawings. Decorative plaster is applied using metallic or rubber spatula Thin layers whose number can be from 5 to 8. Despite such a considerable number of layers, the total thickness of the plaster, made in this technique, is only 3 ÷ 4 mm.
	To reproduce the Venetian plaster, the already fastened composition is most often used, otherwise it will be after the completion of its application and drying, to make staining, and in this case the part of the intended effect will be lost. The desired effect of the "silk" surface is achieved by the presence of several layers of the same color, and each of them is applied and rubbed in different directions. Thanks to such a technique, strokes that differ in the direction give a different reflection of the light on the wall. Thus, the surface is spinning with silk gloss. In some cases, to create an effect of a deeper spatial volume, translucent from the inside, takes several color shades close to each other.
	Each of the plastering layers imposed by smears is smoothed, but this process is made by tangent movements with an application of certain efforts. For each of the layers, professional masters use spatulas and cells differing in thickness and width, creating a multilayer chaotic embossed pattern from a solution. With this plaster technology, you can simulate the structure of the pattern of different finishing stones on the wall. To enhance the effect of imitation, after completion of the work on the application of plaster, waiting for its burden, the surface is grinning with wax or cover with matte varnish.
	More accessible for non-professional variant of embossed plaster. The composition is applied using a conventional spatula into one or more layers, each of which should be succeeded. Each layer relief can be smoothed, or its protruding fragments are left in its original form. The smoothing of the solution is carried out with the help of metal celma, neat touches. With the help of such equipment, you can create different reliefs, and their shape and direction will depend on the creative moods of the wizard.
	If it is assumed to create a relief having the right smooth forms and lines, you can use to reproduce a toothed spatula (Kelma), usually used for applying glue when finishing the surfaces with ceramic tiles, or a special comb.
	This kind of relief drawing will be easy to reproduce the master who first picked up a plaster tool. The first step using a conventional wide spatula on the wall layer of plaster mortar is applied, and it is not necessary that it is perfectly smooth. It is then an relief in the form of semicircles, lines of chess location or other drawings that can be invent independently.
	Another relief option available in reproduction for any creative person is an impression from a conventional polyethylene film on a wet plaster applied to the wall. In this case, the fantasy can also be not limited, since the film can be applied in the deployment or twisted in the roller, and simply jumping it chaotically. In addition, you can come up with your own version of the application of this material, since, seeking the desired pattern, with a solution and a film can be safely experimenting.
	When removing the film, after it was pressed to a wet plaster, it will inevitably pull the solution, and as a result, peculiar embossed protrusions are formed, which can be smoothed with a spatula or cell. Applying this method of creating decorative plaster, you can use a tinted solution, or to paint it after the wall is dry after applying the relief.
	Pretty popular for the design of both the inner and outer surfaces of the walls is such a factory figure like "Coroed". For this, used special composition Plasters, which includes rigid stone fractions in size of 1.5 ÷ 3 mm. This solution is applied using a metal celma, and it can be distributed on the surface in a different direction, depending on which relief is intended to get. Rigid fractions when applying plaster leave the furrows, imitating surface damage by insects. These in-depth bands can be arranged vertically, horizontally, diagonally, in the form of a semicircle or whole circles - the direction of the relief pattern will depend on the preference of the wizard and the intended design.
	The frequently used tool for applying the relief is a roller, leaving a factory pattern on the wall surface. This method of recreating volume can be used by any owner of the housing, even never previously engaged in plastering. It is enough to buy a roller with the relief like that on its rubber nozzle and leave the output on the fresh solution applied to the wall. The choice of nozzles is so great that they can be chosen on any, even the most sophisticated taste. If desired, the nozzle on the roller can be made and independently, using for this segment of the foam rubber, coarse rope, polyethylene film, Fur, Fabric with deep relief or other materials capable of leaving the necessary impression on a wet plaster.
	If on the walls it is planned to create a correct vegetable pattern, in the form of grass and leaves of different shapes and size, then the roller with such a pattern will have to be purchased in the finished form. Work on the design of the walls in such a technique passes rather quickly, since there will be no failures in the process - the plaster mixture is applied to the surface, and while it remains moist, it takes place with a roller that leaves the selected pattern on the surface.
	And this is an easy way that does not require special costs of purchasing a tool to reproduce the relief. For the finishing process, a conventional flat brush with a soft or rigid pile is used, depending on how clear the drawing is planned to be obtained. The relief is recreated by the same principle as when using a spatula with a toothed comb - according to a fresh plastering solution applied to the wall.
	Another decorative plaster technique, which is not performed along the entire surface of the wall, but only in its separate areas. The background for him can serve as one of the above-described types of shallow relief. Panels are usually made from a plaster mortar. The composition is applied slides on the laid wall area in the drawing and left to dry. After drying into the course, cutting tools are going - it can be a knife, cutters of different shapes and a spatula - with their help the desired forms are created. In addition to the incisors, elaborate paper with small and medium grain, which is boosted by the cut-made volumetric patterns. In order not to spoil the wall, it is recommended to experiment, creating a small panel or its individual parts on plywood sheet. Just make sure that everything turns out, you can proceed to reproduction of a planned relief pattern on the wall.

In addition to those listed above, there are other items that can serve to create embossed patterns on the surface of the wall. Not only professional tools, but also tools or even fragments of plants, such as the leaves of trees, or branches of various thicknesses are widely used for this purpose.

Coloring decorative plaster

As mentioned above, in construction stores you can buy a color decorative plaster, but it is much more difficult to work with it, since all the complex needs to be played in one color. Therefore, the white plaster mixture is most often selected, which, after final grazing, is covered with selected shades, which significantly expands the creative possibilities of a home master.

In addition to applying color to the finished relief wall, there is another technique for creating a color surface. In this embodiment, a certain color is added to the white plaster, and then the relief on the wall is made from the material of different shades. This is a rather complicated technique, and a professional artist or a person who has the appropriate talent can cope with it. Therefore, most optimal option It remains painting the finished relief.

Usually for staining of decorative plaster, water-based paints are used, in which the desired color is added. Recommended, picking up the color, to make it on one or two tones darker, because when drying paint - it will light up.

Illustration	Brief description of the operation
	The most used reception when applied to the embossed plaster color color is a coating with a light tone, selected shade. Such staining will become uniting for the whole composition. The paint is applied to the entire plane with a roller, pre-pressing it on the ribbed surface of the painting tray. If the relief has a depth of more than 5 mm, then for its toning, a roller with a long pile is used, or especially deep fragments are tinted with a soft brush.
	The first paint layer is applied in one approach, otherwise the painting will be uneven. Therefore, if the paint is toned independently, it must be mounted so much so that it is enough for the first layer for all walls in the room or at least for one wall, but necessarily for its entire area. This is especially important if the surfaces are stained with one color without additional shades and divorces. Staining is carried out in different ways, depending on the depth of the relief and the desired end result.
	One of the options for uneven dyeing - it is performed using a sponge. Then, another wet painted surface passes with a soft cloth or a dry sponge, barely touching the protruding elements of the relief. This technique of execution is aimed at strengthening the "depth of space" the relief not only with the help of volume, but also using the color game.
	This method of finishing decoration consists of two stages - staining and stripping of the protruding elements of the relief of the emery paper. The first step is the entire area of \u200b\u200bthe walls is painted with a common color - this process can be carried out using a roller or spacing. The second stage is made after the paint is completely dry. A small-ceiling sandpaper is installed on the construction grater, after which this tool is passed through the protruding parts of the relief. In this way, the paint is removed from the surface or brightened, thereby showing a volumetric pattern. If desired, the purified surfaces can be covered close by tone to the main color of paint, darker or lighter, depending on which effect you need to get. Usually the light shade is chosen, as it visually increases the volume of the relief.
	Relief panel can only make experienced MasterBut it can be written and independently. However, it is necessary to consider that this process is quite complicated and durable, as it will have to produce thin brushes, so work will take quite a lot of time. The finished relief panel of plaster is recommended to cover with primer, dry, and only then proceed to the painting. You should not take clean bright colors, as they will not be viewed relief. Therefore, they are diluted to the state of shades of the selected color or add a certain amount of their white paint.
	In this embodiment of decorative plaster, two colors are used - one main, and the second is auxiliary, which will highlight the drawing of the relief. Works are carried out in two stages. First, the entire surface is covered with one, basic color. This process can be carried out with a roller, a wide brush or a pulverizer. Then this layer must be well succeeded. The second stage is to apply with tangent movements to the protruding parts of the paint relief using a soft brush, a foam sponge or a mittens on hand. The paint should be sufficiently thick, and the brush or sponge is dry.

The final stage of work on the decorative plaster is to cover the walls with varnish or wax. This process must be taken carefully, since, applying the final layer carelessly, you can spoil all the work.

In conclusion I would like to say that if the experience in performing decorative plastering is small or absent at all, it is not recommended to choose too complex design techniques. In the same case, when a specific pattern was chosen and a decision was made by anything to reproduce it on the wall, it should be carefully examined by the instructions and practicing on a small section of the wall or plywood shield.

"Versailles Plaster": Available to each technology - step by step

In the final section, the design of the wall of the so-called "Versaille Plaster" will be considered as an example. In the proposed finishing technology, instead of plastering composition, two types of putty are used - starting and finishing, which allows you to save a decent amount on the finish. In addition, the advantage of this method of the original decorative wall decoration is that it can be done even to a novice master. The main thing is to purchase qualitative material And right to use it.

In addition to two types of putty, to obtain the desired result, the Quartz-Soil will need for applying a decorative cladding on the wall, which creates increased adhesion between materials, and also does not allow putty to dry overly. The presence of this material is mandatory condition For the decoration of the wall for such technology.

So that the plaster layer is aesthetic, you need to purchase two more components, without which the proper effect fails.

This, firstly, the decorative coloring coating of the "ADAGIO SILVER" type is on an acrylic binder containing small metal particles of various shapes. It gives a very interesting overflowing effect, giving the wall of silk appearance.

Secondly, the so-called glitter is used consisting of the smallest particles of the polyester film. different shapes. This component is also added to one of the layers of decorative wall decoration.

Illustration	Brief description of the operation
	The first step is mixed with a model mass consisting of a starting and finishing putty in proportion of 1: 1. Alsystem occurs as follows: In turn, part of the start and part of the finish putty, then the sequence is repeated, and so until the desired amount of dry mixture is covered. If necessary, some water is added to the bucket, and then the mass is mixed using the mixer nozzle. Next, the finished solution is left 10 ÷ 12 minutes - this time is necessary in order for it "dose". After this time, the mass is again mixed up to a homogeneous state. It should be very well proteishaned and have a consistency of medium density, that is, not very liquid, and not thick.
	The finished putty composition is applied to the prepared, aligned, processed "quartz-ground" and the dried surface of the wall. If the mass is not applied not from the ceiling, but below, on a blank line on the wall, it is recommended that it is recommended to stick the greasy tape first, which will help to leave the top of the wall and retains the smooth upper border of the decorative finish. Work starts from the upper line. First of all, the putty mixture is distributed along the painting tape.
	The applied layer must have a thickness of 2 ÷ 3 mm. Special attention should be paid to filling the joints of the planes, for example, if the putty will be applied from the ceiling line. The mixture is superimposed on the wall with a cylma, a relatively smooth layer. This work can also be performed with a spatula that has a width of 300 ÷ 350 mm. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the finishes can not be particularly trying, moving the solution to perfect smoothness, the main thing is that the material layer has the same thickness throughout the wall plane and was flat enough. The greater the putty layer, the easier it will see the flaw flaws in the drawing.
	The smooth facing layer is applied to a height of 1000 ÷ 1500 mm from the top down the wall. Then a relief pattern is formed on a wet putty. To do this, the plastic square is used with a pointed in front of the plate - it resembles an iron in shape. The work begins on the corners or the upper line of the wall. The master produces wave-like movements, stretching the mass, at the same time creating a chaotic drawing in the form of bands that are in different directions. With the help of Kelma, the mass as it would be raised above the surface, creating a larger volume of decorative coating and leaving the furrows behind them of different widths, most often ranged surface diagonal. The convenience of creating a relief is similar to the fact that the drawing applied to the solution can always be corrected if he does not like the master.
	Having worked out the first putty putty, and reaching about the middle of the wall in height, produce the manufacture of the next portion of the solution. During this time, the mass applied to the wall will already have time to grab. Therefore, many masters have the problem of uniting the plastered area of \u200b\u200bthe wall with the already seized solution and fresh, which has just been involved in the mass, which will be applied below. The junction between the two areas of the wall should be completely noticeable.
	To ensure that the union passed neatly, and it became completely not noticeable, the fresh solution is applied to the wave on the already applied layer by 150 ÷ \u200b\u200b200 mm, and then the total layer is smoothed. This process must be made through the entire line of combining two zones - upper and lower.
	The lines of the allen need to smooth out well, and then apply a common embossed pattern on it.
	The design of the relief begins with the area where the drawing has already been applied. It turns out that it seems to be "picking up" to the celma and extend to the exactly applied spacing layer along its entire length.
	Combining the two wall areas, it is important to ensure that there are no deep dents or pronounced stripes from the Kelma on it. Such defects need to be sworn and give these areas a common relief, since in these zones they will be particularly noticeable. By producing work on the unifying line, it is recommended to move aside and inspect the area of \u200b\u200bwork from afar. So it is possible to more clearly determine the shortcomings and immediately fix them.
	Then, the model mass is applied to the entire bottom of the wall with a smooth layer, and the relief is formed in it, in just the same way. When the wall is completely covered with this primary layer of putty with a dealt with a terrain, it is left for full bite for two days.
	When the wall is dry, along its surface, a spatula is passing, which must be cleaned with the protruding sharp edges of the embossed strips, as they must be rounded.
	Then, the entire surface is treated with a construction grater, with emery paper installed on it. Grout is carried out with a slight pressure, circular motions counterclockwise.
	After processing, a relief surface with smoothed protruding edges of the picture should be obtained. An additional surface check, that is, its smoothness, you can produce, spending your palm on it. If untreated areas are found, scratching palm, then this flaw should be fixed immediately. The treated surface must be carefully cleaned from putty dust - this process is performed using a soft wide brush or brush.
	The next step is the surface treatment with a primer composition of deep penetration. The soil is applied with a roller with a pile nozzle. The composition must be well distributed over the wall, collecting all the flows formed. This layer will dry 1.5 ÷ 2 hours.
	Next, takes white paint On a water basis, it is added to it, the selected shade is added (in this case, the wizard applied a beige dye), and the mass is well mixed to a homogeneous state. The paint should be applied easily and not be too thick, so if necessary, the solution is divorced to the desired consistency with water. Relatively liquid paint composition when applied to the wall will become translucent, which in the complex with other layers of different shades will create the illusion of space.
	The paint is primarily applied to the edge of the wall with the help of a brush, and then the main part of the surface is tinted with a roller with a pile nozzle. It well distributes the mass along the embossed surface, filling the paint all the deepening of the pattern, and when the composition is rawped, collects its surplus. As a result, the surface should be neat and smoothly painted, not having inclusions. After the entire surface is covered with a tinting composition, it is left until complete burials. Water-based paint applied by a thin layer will dry around two hours.
	Further, the composition made from ordinary primer and "silver" - dye "ADAGIO SILVER" is applied to the surface with a foam roller. The mixture is prepared in proportion of 1: 1, that is, in this case, the master took 250 × 250 grams of these materials. The resulting mixture should have a sufficiently thick consistency and do not give inclusions at all. A mass on the wall is applied without push, so that only the top protruding elements of the relief is covered. Deepends to be stained with this composition should not.
	The mixture is neatly rolled over the entire wall of the wall, highlighting the relief.
	Next, you will need to prepare the finishing composition, which transforms the wall surface is beyond recognition. It consists of a water-based varnish and a small amount of glitter. Varnish is diluted with water, in proportions about 1: 3, and mix well. The additive of water is necessary in order to the surface of the wall, after its coating it was not formed a rigid uneven glossy crust.
	A small amount of glytter is added to the varnish, about a tablespoon of 0.5 liter composition. Then the solution is thoroughly mixed with intensive shaking. Before you begin shaking, the capacitance cover with the composition you need to close tightly.
	Further, the finished lacquer is applied to the embossed plaster using a foam roller and is well distributed on the wall surface. After completing this stage of work, the finish can be considered complete. It remains only to wait for the muzzle of the wall surface, and then remove the larger tape limiting wall.
	On the last illustration, the result of this sufficiently long-term work on the design of the wall is presented. But, agree, the technology is not so complicated, and the resulting finish looks very original.

Recently, the application of decorative plaster again won the laurels of the championship. Thanks innovative compositions, huge pulling palette, big assortment tools and devices such a way finish finish Outdoor and inland walls and even ceilings are popular when decorating interiors in fashionable restaurants and apartments, shopping and entertainment facilities, apartments and cottages.

Characteristics and advantages of material

Stucco, which is applied with the finest layer with a thickness of just a few millimeters, can acquire all sorts of forms and textures. The designation itself "Decorative" directly indicates its main purpose - to give the ground a complete, aesthetically impeccable appearance.

Depending on the designer ideasThe plastered walls can be smooth and brilliant, velvetist-matte or to imitate interesting natural surfaces - stone, wood crust, leather reptiles. The texture depends on the shape and size of the fraction of the grain filler in the mixture, as well as from the receptions and the tools that you use when applying and distributing the composition over the surface.

The TM Dali-Decor® collection presents decorative latter generation plasters, which are created taking into account all the requirements of a modern person to finishing materials. Our coatings perfectly lie on any types of foundations, be it concrete, plaster, brickwork, plasterboard, wood or cement.

The plaster is supplied in plastic buckets in the prepaid for applying. You can only mix the solution thoroughly, and you can begin to apply it to pre-prepared walls. Among the important advantages of our products is worth noting:

moisture resistancewhich allows the use of compounds in rooms where high humidity is always present. This is the perfect solution for the finishing finish of kitchens, bathrooms and, of course, facades of buildings and structures;

• elasticityThrough which the stucco resistance is provided before forming cracks;
• ease of applying and cleaning. Even beginner surface house master, and care for her is periodic wet cleaning using ordinary detergents;
• resistance to exposure ultraviolet rays, temperature differences;
• unprecedented durability - A regular advantage that directly follows from all listed properties.

Stages of work

Step 1. Preparation of walls. Regardless of what finish coating you have chosen, the walls must be prepared before applying the decorative plaster. When carrying out internal works from the room you need to make all the furniture, freeing the walls from furniture, shelves, paintings, etc. You also need to remove all the remains of the old coating (paint, wallpaper, whitewings). Clean all the discovered and protruding sites on the walls, remove the scattering surface elements, corrosion traces, fungus, mold.

Pile and cracks expand, free from garbage, dust, parties of building materials and close with a solution. However, insignificant surface defects can be left as it is if you plan to use texture formulations. But smooth, such as Venetian plaster, need ideal grounding grounds.

Step 2. Wall tooling. Now you need to check the quality of the walls and determine the degree of their "curvature". In accordance with the results obtained, you can determine how many layers of plaster will be required. Armed with a plumbing and level, spend the walls of the walls, focusing on the shown scheme. To ensure the reasons for the correct verticality and horizontality, exhibit tags and beams in different places, to whose level you will later and you will apply a solution of plaster.

Step 3. Primer. To improve the adhesion of the decorative solution and provide it with the right drying, the walls must be projected. This process is necessary when applied as smooth and textured, structural plaster, flock coatings, etc. GK Rogunda offers primer materials in the assortment, so you can easily choose exactly the one that comes directly for the type of surface treated and the selected finish finish.

The technology of applying decorative plaster requires to give the walls to completely dry in a natural way. The use of a construction dryer or a heater with a fan is not recommended as this can give an undesirable effect of cracker (small cracks). Optimal for drying primer conditions is the temperature indoor 18-25 degrees and humidity of at least 20%.

Step 4. Applying decorative plaster. The factory composition is simply applied to the surface with a spatula, a metal ironing or a special spray, then with certain tools and movements of hands holding a working tool, the wall is given the corresponding pattern or relief. It is necessary to act almost continuously, so as not to give the solution to dry, so that there can be no speech on lunch breaks.

After that, it is necessary to wait for the complete drying of the finish. It is more complicated with the Venetian plaster. Instead of one main layer, several very thin is applied, and not on the whole base, and stains to get a spectacular game of halftones. Secure the base and provide him with a noble glitter you can use the wax TM DALI-DECOR®.

Popular Plaster Application Methods

"Sprinkle". Of all the technologies of decorative plaster, this is perhaps the most simple. The relief in this case is created by spray. After applying the first layer of plaster, wait for it to dry, and then apply another on which you will create texture. In the choice of the working tool, no one limits you - you can take an even ordinary broom, dip it in the mixture and splash on the wall in chaotic order. At the same time, it is not at all necessary that the main layer and embossed "splashes" were one color.

"Bouffant". On the fresh layer of plaster, pass the brush with a metal bristle - vertically, diagonally, a circle or anyhow. 24 hours later, when the surface dries, a spatula or a rapid, remove particles of finishing material that are badly held. As a result, you will get a very nontrivial ornament.

"Stamping". Decorative plaster on the surface is applied with a special roller with a pattern. However, out conventional tool and the rope wrapped on his working surface, You can create an excellent device to create a fashionable invoice that will create the effect of grass stems.

"Sgraffito". In contrast to the methods described, this method Somewhat more complicated, but also a highly artistic result is undoubtedly worth the effort. The plaster is applied to the surface in several layers, which differ from each other in color or shade. On the top layer With the help of a stencil, a drawing is cut (it can be an ornament, pattern or a whole pattern to the entire wall), and pieces of finishes are removed using cutters or scrapers.

Decorative plaster is a building material that is used to finish internal surfaces in rooms, and in some cases outdoor. Applying decorative plaster is one of the few operations that can be carried out without a specialist intervention. The fact is that the modern building market offers a huge number of different tools that greatly facilitate the finish process.

In addition, it has now disappeared to buy separate ingredients for mixtures and prepare them manually - everything is sold in stores in the form of ready-made viscous solutions or dry compositions. It remains only to choose the correct materials and tools, as well as learn some features of applying decorative plaster with their own hands.

To choose the right plaster, you need to decide on the desired effect from it, temperature regime and air humidity of premises in which the coating will be applied. It is recommended to describe the seller in detail to get exactly what you need.

When choosing materials for preparatory workremember that with strong irregularities on surfaces it may be necessary starting wipelAnd in particularly launched cases - plasterboard sheets. It should also be clarified in advance about the characteristics of the flavor, since some of them are brighten or darken after drying. The primer is better to choose deep-rotating to ensure the maximum durable contact of plaster and surface.

From the tools will be required:

• kelma, wide and narrow spatulas (preferably to buy rubber, and metal);
• terks and Halfury - for leveling the solution and imparting the surface of the texture;
• painting rollers (you can do foamoons, but it's better to buy texture);
• malka with teeth for the formation of the relief;
• painting brushes for moving and creating shallow reliefs;
• stencils;
• to apply the Venetian plaster, it is better to purchase a special shovel - it is also called "Venetian".

Preparatory work

Before applying decorative plaster, it is necessary to carry out the following actions:

• Remove the old coating from the walls or ceiling.
• Extract any fasteners and trim fragments of reinforcements that are distinguished from the wall.
• Align the surfaces with putty, after drying it to handle the walls with sandpaper or grinding to remove the irregularities of the walls with their own hands.
• At the end, it is necessary to process the surfaces of the primer twice with the interval of 3-4 hours.

Features of work with decorative plaster

The technology of applying decorative plasters has the following nuances:

1. When working with a liquid, already diluted plaster, it should be noted that it often falls from the cell or spatula, so the floors are better noted with a polyethylene film.
2. If materials of a large fraction were used for the manufacture of the mixture, then it can be applied only by hand.
3. The technology of applying decorative plaster, which was prepared from fillers of various fractions, is quite complex, so standard compositions are recommended for domestic masters.
4. Finishing materials that are diluted with water differ in greater environmentally friendly than plaster on synthetic substances. At the same time, the "water" compositions are more susceptible to temperature and mechanical effects.

Decorative plaster can be sold at a finished form or in the form of a dry mix that requires water dilution

There are some more nuances, which is important to remember when carrying out work:

• Decorative plaster dries faster on cellular concrete or starting plaster.
• When processing wooden surfaces Or walls from plywood and chipboard It is important to remember that water-based formulations can deform them.
• If there are defects on the surface being processed, decorative material It will take more.
• In order to avoid corrosion, it should not use the "aquatic" plaster for finishing surfaces with metal elements.
• Most of the decorative plasters are grabbed for a maximum of 5 hours, dry out in 1-2 days, and the strength set lasts not more than 9 days.

Step-by-step instructions for finishing

Before starting work, all surfaces that are in close proximity from the area should be launched. Starting the application is necessary from one corner to the opposite - from top to bottom.

Decorative Plaster Application Technique:

Creating texture

It's important to know! During the finishing work, it is necessary to follow the cleanliness of the instrument and rinse it with water as often as possible. It is also not recommended to prepare a large amount of solution at a time (this is especially true of plaster plasters), since it can dry in the tank.

Methods for applying decorative plaster to achieve various effects:

Creating a decorative effect with girlfriend

You can apply decorative plaster with your own hands and without special tools, while getting a great result as a result. Most often use the usual sponge, which "wet" fresh solution to get a textural coating. Various furrows and notches can be made by any sharp object, including a knife, fork or even a simple pencil. It is possible to artificially form a surface, scoring into the spuffed solution. Fresh solution is also stretched over the wall with a brush to simultaneously fill all the spaces and give the surface to the texture.

Original ideas for wall decoration plaster

Apply decorative plaster on the walls - it means not to simply align the surface, but also to show a fantasy. Via simple tools You can create a truly original interior.

Use brush

This application method implies the use of fine-grained plaster. First, the walls are prepared as described above. After that, the starting layer is applied. After grappling it, you need to take a brush with rigid bristles and moisten it in water. With this tool, you can create the following texture elements:

Malyary Valik

Is it possible to apply decorative plaster with such a tool - the answer is yes. This all familiar tool can also be used to apply decorative plaster with their own hands. Depending on the type of nozzle of this tool, you can get different textures:

• Rubber rollers Apply to create bulk textures, externally resembling natural drawings, such as the surface of the leaves or skin reptile.
• Poropolone with various embossed patterns are used to draw abstract embossed coatings.
• Fur nozzles are excellent for creating a "fur coat" texture.

This decorative wall plaster needs subsequent staining, in most cases the first layer is used to remove surface defects, and the second is decorative. It is applied to any dry brush, either chosen.

Stucco finishing with stencils

The use of these items is simple, but at the same time original and effective way creating various textural surfaces for decorating premises. They can be used with the materials of any type. But if we are talking about small squares, More fits the plaster decorative fine-grained.

The first thing the walls are prepared, after which the starting layer is applied. It can be plaster made in any style: from specially used surfaces to conventional ornaments. A layer of paint is applied to the finished layer, which should distinguish from it for several tones. After a complete drying of the first layer on the wall, stencil is applied, after which the finishing layer of plaster is applied over it, which is subsequently covered with wax.

Using stamps

This technique requires certain skills, so it is recommended to first work out a bit on the "draft". First apply the base layer with a thickness of no more than 3 mm. The solution for this layer is initially painted with a color, it is also allowed to apply the paint after completing the procedure. After that, they apply a second layer with a thickness of about 1 mm. To do this, use a more liquid plaster with a saturated color. At the end, the surface is posed by a special rubber tool. As a result, layers are mixed, forming a rather interesting texture for walls.

The plaster with your own hands is simultaneously simple, but the procedure-demanding details, therefore, before decorative plaster, apply onto the wall or other surface, you must examine the instructions above and the manufacturers recommendations.
