Frequently Asked Questions

• What is Venetian Polished Plaster?

  Venetian Polished Plaster is a decorative wall finish made from lime, marble dust, and natural minerals. It creates a smooth, seamless, and luxurious marble-like effect with a unique depth and texture.

• Where can Venetian Plaster be applied?

  It can be applied to walls, ceilings, columns, and furniture in both residential and commercial spaces. It’s commonly used in hotels, offices, restaurants, and luxury homes.

• Is Venetian Plaster durable?

  Yes! Once fully cured, Venetian Plaster is highly durable, resistant to cracks, and can last for decades with proper care. It even hardens over time due to its lime-based composition.

• How long does Venetian Plaster take to dry and cure?

  • Touch Dry: Within 4-6 hours per coat
  • Fully Dry: Around 24-48 hours
  • Fully Cured: Typically, 7-28 days, depending on humidity and ventilation

• Is Venetian Polished Plaster waterproof?

  The plaster itself is breathable but not waterproof. However, when sealed with a wax or protective coating, it becomes water-resistant, making it ideal for bathrooms and kitchens (but not wet areas like inside showers unless properly sealed).

• Can Venetian Plaster be applied over existing paint or plaster?

  Yes! Venetian Plaster can be applied over painted walls, drywall, cement, or plaster, as long as the surface is clean, smooth, and primed for adhesion.

• How do you clean and maintain Venetian Plaster?

  Venetian Plaster is low maintenance. Simply use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down surfaces. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasives. For extra protection, a wax finish can be applied periodically, Marvle Creations is more than happy to re-seal the area every 12-24 months.

• Does Venetian Plaster crack?

  If applied correctly, Venetian Plaster is flexible and resistant to cracking. However, if the substrate moves or was not prepared properly, small cracks may appear over time.

• Can Venetian Plaster be repaired if damaged?

  Yes! Small damages can often be repaired by blending in additional layers of plaster and re-polishing the surface. For best results, repairs should be done by a professional.

• Is Venetian Plaster eco-friendly?

  Yes! Since it is made from natural lime and minerals, Venetian Plaster is non-toxic, VOC- free, and breathable helping regulate indoor air quality.
