In this case, decorative plaster is the best option for you. This is an ancient material that has been used for many centuries, but now it is more favorably distinguished by its composition and variety of application technologies. The main components in the composition have hardly changed.

The innovation was introduced only for auxiliary elements, as well as for the technological process of creating a mixture.

American woman

What is an American woman? Decorative plaster, which combines the ease of application to the surface and a large selection of textures and colors.

Manufacturers try so hard to create new formulations that offer various collections of decorative coatings like American:

• " Industry". This type of decorative plaster differs in that it is fine-grained. The result is a mixture that hides surface imperfections well.

As a result, you can save time during renovation work, in particular when finishing.

• "Fac de ". This type of decorative plaster was specially developed to decorate the facades of buildings. The American has certain characteristics - increased resistance to temperature fluctuations, excellent protection from vandals. The mixture is based on only a coarse fraction.

  In this collection, only fresh shades are used that perfectly combine lightness and purity. Basic tones are beige, gray, chocolate, and all this using the middle fraction.

• "О ffice ". This type of American decorative plaster will help to decorate your house or apartment with bright colors.

Pearlescent or metallized chips, which are added to the mixture, will give the walls a beautiful look, and also can increase the degree of repelling dust and dirt from the walls.

Features

The decorative types of plaster, namely the American in our case, have some features that professionals have already appreciated:

• Unique design that will perfectly transform the appearance of the surface.
• Top coat American is a special protective reinforcing coating that is easy to maintain and also prevents the walls from getting dirty.
• Plaster has good sound insulation and noise insulation characteristics.

American mix also has good adhesive properties. This coating is vapor-permeable, so the walls will "breathe", which means that the mixture is ideal for a wet room.

If you wish, you can easily dismantle such a wall covering, and at the same time not change the usual rhythm of life. When applying American decorative plaster, up to 250 m ² surfaces can be processed per day, and this will help to significantly reduce the duration of finishing and construction work in general. If you choose this type of topcoat, you can expect to see significant savings over the traditional 30% purchase.

How to use it

In the photo you will see the finished finished surface, which is suitable for both industrial sectors and for building a public plan. This finish is especially relevant in those rooms that are characterized by increased operational load.

For example, American can be used to decorate walls in a kindergarten, office building, store, airport, hospital, hotel complex. In the video tutorial, you can see all the features of using the American topcoat.

Tools and devices

The main tool for professionals for finishing work is a triangular trowel with rounded edges.

Varieties of mixtures

Decorative types of mixtures for a modern interior can be either the main elements or as an excellent addition to the created design. Depending on what you choose, you can easily bring any design decisions to life.

You can use plaster to make a continuous covering on the wall, or use it to decorate individual fragments in the form of columns, doors, decorative panels or niches. When the application work is completed, the wall will receive the texture, which is determined by the type of filler, and, moreover, will be able to hide all flaws. You can use mixtures of the American type not only in some rooms, but even in the pool.

Classification

In the composition of plaster mixtures there are binders, filler (stone, grains of sand), and also additives, with the help of which they improve operational characteristics. For example, to increase adhesion to the treated surface, antiseptic and bactericidal properties.

Depending on which binder is used, decorative plaster can be divided into:

• Mineral, which is based on lime - cement mixture. Similar materials have been adapted for use in interior and exterior finishes. The mixture has a high level of vapor permeability.
• Polymer, based on acrylic resin. Such a composition is resistant to high levels of humidity, temperature fluctuations, and the negative effects of UV rays.

  Polymeric decorative plaster American is suitable for the design of facades and premises, and due to the use of various additives, even the most complex textures can be formed, for example, under leather or velvet.Acrylic plaster will not work if you only plan to do external work.

• Silicate, based on liquid glass. The composition has such distinctive features as a low level of elasticity, so you have the opportunity to apply the composition even on those walls that are made of aerated concrete. The mixture has high resistance to high levels of humidity, it withstands well the impact of a mechanical nature, does not allow fungus and mold to develop on the walls.

  To increase the performance characteristics of the silicate mixture, first you should carry out plastering on the rough one, while adding a little lime to the mixture.

• Silicate, which consists of silicone resins and fine filler. The latter is usually used marble dust or fine sandstone. The finished mixture can be used to process the facade of the building. The plaster also showed a good anti-static effect, since it does not accumulate dust and dirt.

Please note, for small rooms, for example, for a corridor, it is better to choose a calm, fine-grained texture that is devoid of volumetric reliefs.

If we divide by decorativeness, then there are such groups:

1. Venetian plaster is the most refined of all modern mixtures. When using it, you can get coatings like natural marble, crinkled fabric, silk and even velvet. It differs in a finely dispersed composition and high plasticity, which means that the surface will be smooth. To obtain a shine on the walls and a polishing effect, use special varnishes or treatment with protective wax.

2. Textured decorative plaster is made on the basis of various types of synthetic resins, which are supplemented with cotton fibers, crumbs of natural / artificial materials and impregnations of metal. You can, if you wish, make original bas-reliefs with your favorite texture.
3. If pebbles are used as a filler for the mixture, then this mixture, heterogeneous in consistency, will give several shades at once. The mosaic effect will make it possible to use it to decorate the facade and basement of a building. For the decoration of corridors, bathrooms and offices, this is ideal.

Conclusion

Among the many new types of materials and solutions that are used for modern construction, special attention can be paid to decorative plaster. This material has a plastic, heterogeneous structure, which can be based on a latex, cement, lime base, and the filler differed in size of fractions. If you prefer American decorative plaster, then make the right choice, as it is interesting for its parameters, ease of application and ease of maintenance.

The blotches that are in the mixture, after drying, will give an interesting effect on the walls.You will not regret buying this particular type of plaster, since you do not need special skills from you, and the result will delight you for many years.
