Mineral. It is made on the basis of cement, commercially available as a dry mix. Before use, it should be diluted with water until a homogeneous mass is obtained using a mixer. There is a drawback - you cannot dissolve the paint in a large amount of plaster, so the walls will have to be “painted” after finishing the work with the surface coating.

Mineral option

Acrylic. Made from synthetic materials with acrylic resin. It has high ductility, water resistance and good adhesion to mineral substrates. The disadvantages include flammability, therefore, it is not recommended to use it with mineral wool insulation. Moreover, such plaster is easy to apply and keeps its shape. Before application, the surface of the walls should be leveled and primed. It is also sold dry. Pay attention to the expiration date, if it is approaching the end, do not buy the mixture, as it will be difficult to work with it.

Acrylic material

Silicone. A modern and versatile version of textured plaster. Has a high rate of elasticity, durability and adhesion.Suitable for all types of substrates, does not let in steam. It is sold cooked in a specific color. Even a beginner in the construction industry can handle such a material. The disadvantage is the high cost.

Silicone Wall Covering Option

Silicate. It is made on the basis of potash glass, which is rarely used in interior decoration. That is, such plaster is good for facade work. It is not easy to work with, so it is rarely used.

Textured plaster for walls: video how to apply the material yourself

It is not difficult to apply the material yourself, so everyone can cope with such a process. Let's look at step-by-step instructions with photo examples.

Table 2. Technology for applying plaster

What need to do	Photo
There is a preparatory stage in every process. The prepared mixture must be applied on a flat surface, therefore, ground work should be performed. It is better to take the material from the “deep penetration” series, which is better absorbed.
The plaster itself can be applied in 1 - 3 layers. When calculating the amount of material, keep in mind that 1-2 kg is enough for 1 m². The more layers, the more mixture you need. The color is usually white, while other shades are obtained by adding dyes to the right amount of solution. To apply, take a small amount of plaster with a spatula and spread it evenly over the trowel. Place the tool against the wall and smear at a 30⁰ angle. Tip: Try applying on a small area to see how many layers and paint you need.
The material itself is malleable, so it can be applied with a textured plaster roller. Move in one direction. Such a tool may have special nozzles with a pattern. A kitchen sponge is also applicable.
Work over the entire surface with a trowel to smooth out protruding elements and sharp corners.

In this simple way, you can independently apply a pattern to a wall in a house or apartment. Here is a video on the stages of work.

How to prepare textured plaster yourself

If you want to reduce the cost of the repair process, then you can prepare textured plaster from ordinary putty with your own hands, spending your time and effort on this, knowing exactly what the mixture is made of.

For work, prepare a putty, a deep mixing container, a trowel and spatula, a construction mixer (you can do with a stick), a metal grater and a bag to create a pattern.

Pattern making tools

To calculate the required amount of putty, pay attention to the packaging, which indicates the amount of mixture per 1 m². If you decide to buy the material in the form of powder, then additionally purchase some PVA glue. To dilute, take 2 liters of water, 200 g of glue and 6 kg of the mixture.

Dilution of the mixture

Note! The glue is added only after mixing with a mixer.

For the walls in the rooms, gypsum or cement plaster is suitable, and if you decide to update the bathroom, then stop the choice on the second option.

Then proceed in the same way as when applying the purchased textured plaster, the stages of which were described above. Here is a video that will help you understand how to make such material with your own hands.

Scales. Apply 3-5 mm of material to the wall, then use a spatula to make vertical strokes. Once dry, paint the desired color.
