DIY Venetian Plaster Walls!

[@RocketLR]

Before moving out - "jeezz why do people put so much effort in these things" Me now, adult life and buying my own apartment. - "Every inch planned out, venetian plaster! Patina walls! Warm light with the exact kelvin levels! Viewing angles! Color combinations! RIGHT SHAPE AND COLOR OF FURNITURE!!!"

[@tinakay9889]

I'm trying this technique for the very FIRST time ever and two coats on so far and looking good! You have given great tips and techniques! I can't wait for it to be complete. I'm so excited for my accent wall to shine!! THANK YOU!!!!

[@jasonkaminski6230]

How did you tint the base? I see the website sells the white base but no colors?

[@artisticdrywall7368]

Dude I watch your video all the time it’s what instead of TV instead of everything I don’t want TV anyways I don’t care for movies all I care is about learning a trade I’m a drywall finisher and that’s what I do as a contractor but I’m always wanting to improve and learn new things because that’s life and I love all your videos there’s so much information that you put out I think You’re great and I think you’re awesome best painter iv ever seen in my life

[@Strangewildandunknown]

I have recently started doing Faux finishes and I am in love with the outcome . It all started with a product by Meoded called Golmex. We coated all our millwork in a retail store we have been charged with completing for a client. The one thing that I cannot find on any media outlet, is a good informational video showing how the product can be manipulated in different ways and showing how the product finishes with each different technique. I have used so much product prior to starting the wall just to see how the different ways you apply it affect the final burnished look. I love your videos and just now liked and subscribed. God Bless brother wealth and health!

I love the plaster technique I did my dining room a few years ago and it still looks great. It took time but I put my music on and I did it all by hand. Next time I will roll it on though.

[@gisselle1872]

I want to do do this for my living room, but am I suppose to do/put something on my walls before i do the plaster? Or can I just do the plaster on my wall like if i were painting it? Hopefully this makes sense for you to be able to answer my question.

[@mikejessable]

Hello Chris, great job. I really like the color and the texture of this venetian plaster. I have considered using it myself on two walls in my home and after watching the application process you made it look easy, Thanks doing a video on this.

[@Idahopainter]

Your welcome! Thanks for sharing🤙

[@faustinocigars8676]

@@Idahopainter hey buddy what kind of product canni use to clean my garage and then do the exposy . I saw the videos that you did but i need to know whre can get those products. thank you you the best 🤝

Another great video Chris. Thanks for all the info. Love this channel. My wife says I spend more time listening to you than I do to her.......I’m hoping she’s exaggerating a lil 😂.

[@Idahopainter]

Thanks🤙

[@Kittykat82206]

Can you ever change to color of this? This is done in a dining room and looking to change the color. Can we just paint over it keeping the Venetian plaster look just different color?

[@lancemillward1912]

Enjoyed the video. I'm plastering two walls in a japanese tea ceremony room I'm building in my lounge. New Zealand a bit far away for you.

[@csabajakab6231]

Thank You, does it needs to be waxed at the end?Any videos with sprayed plaster eventually?

[@RosaCiprianoGonzalez]

Hi Chris! I have an old Venetian wall and I would like to upgrade with a new color. Can I put the new Venetian color on top of the old color? Thank you

[@PhooiYoonLay-JaniceKwan]

Hi, thanks for making this video. ! It's not uncommon for Vienna plaster to stain when it comes into contact with oil or lotion. Do you have some tips for touching up?

[@Idahopainter]

Yes, you are right

[@sdophoto1405]

I never thought about rolling it on before. Should you use two different colours when applying as I am looking for the look of concrete

[@Kstella2226]

How do I get rid of texture? The walls that I have don't have a really heavy or spiky look, but I was looking for a smoother, glossy look. Thanks!

[@nlm8487]

Hi Chris! My name is Shanyn and I have this tutorial several times. I am attempting to do a wall about this size for my Mom soon. I had shown her this wall and she loves this color! So my first question technically for my Mother is what is the name of this color? My questions are should I be able to get the same outcome using Valspar Signature Flat Tintable Venetian Plaster? It would be okay to use the same product in a metallic in the same color hue in random areas possibly for a 4th coat? I would like to add a little shimmer, but not covering thee entire wall. I know you mentioned to apply 3 coats: 1st coat full coverage, 2nd coat full coverage, 3rd coat full coverage? -OR- do you mean when you say ‘random’ to go over lighter spots only on the 2nd coat and you recommend doing a 3rd coat just to make sure you completely cover the entire space. So the 3rd coat is also just on ‘random’ areas that may look lighter to the human eye? Then when it is ‘fully’ covered would I then be able to apply a 4th coat using a metallic tinted plaster in random areas? I hope this makes sense. And one last question what would you say the working time of this product is? Since it has a short working time should I keep closing the gallon after taking out the plaster I feel comfortable working with. Because if I were to keep the gallon open wouldn’t it dry out quickly? Oh I lied I have another question, lol what is your recommended methods for mixing this product before applying to walls and I would probably want to use an artist palette of some sort right? Or do you think using a rolling pan would be a good idea. Or even those metal container things drywall people use when applying joint compound. I know its a lot of questions but I want to make sure I fully understand the way this median works. I do feel confident applying it once I understand the 2nd, and 3rd coat application purpose so I am actually really looking forward to it! Thank you so much Chris and I look forward to your reply! Kindest, Shanyn

Hi! I’m a long time professional. Feel free to reach out for free advice

[@shawncampbell2468]

Great video man I love painting and am always looking for something new to master with our field of work definitely gonna try this out. How much would you charge per sqft

[@ensurepaintingplusllc]

For this specific wall/finish, I believe it’s around $650 but that all depends on the substrate, preparation, application method/desired outcome and client expectations. With that said price will differ from your state’s going rate/what you charge/experience and products used. Good-luck, much easier then people think, You can do it👍🏻 With Gratitude, Derek

[@getfitwithmonkey]

Do you need to seal this? Thank you for your time!

[@Idahopainter]

No need

[@SkullWizard]

how long does this stuff need to dry before burnish/polish step and does a drywall floater work in place of the burnishing tool?

[@Idahopainter]

1 hour

[@jasonkaminski6230]

Great video! Would appreciate a few different camera angles - up close, side , different light etc to see what it’s supposed to look like thru the process. Can’t wait to try it.

[@SG-gc7mn]

Can I refinish Venetian plaster?? I being having it for the past 7 years on my livingroom walls, but I’m already tired of the color I have, I want to chance to a new color or just flat paint. How can I get rid of old Venetian plaster?!?!

[@viniciusscarsetto1147]

First time on your channel! Really cool video man! Keep going with the good videos! Ps. Dude you look like john cena! 😅😅

Literally scrolled down to say the same thing x'D John CEEENAA!

[@sandifessler6026]

if one wall will be venetian plaster and the others a regular paint application, which would you paint first? the venetian wall or the other walls?

[@Idahopainter]

Venetian last

[@arongatt]

Awesome work 👍, nice looking pattern you got out there instead of the usual Venetian look. How would this work as a shower plaster ( Venetian in general ) .

[@NYheavenStudio]

What color did you use? Looks great

What material did you use? The link in the description isn’t working for me.

[@manishachauhan6011]

So I’ve got a question! I have this in between my kitchen units however the decorator didn’t manage to polish it.. So it’s dull & now has stains from daily cooking, how would I be able to give it the glass / shiny affect as he never managed to finish. (I’m not sure they used the tin, I think he ‘created’ the mix - living in the U.K)

[@stevenbalkenbush3343]

Hey Chris, I have this finish on some of my walls and we are hoping to repaint. I am just wondering if there is anything special I need to do before painting over this finish?

[@adimir77]

Hi, I would like to ask you if you can make this masterpiece that you created with acrylic putty and if something else should be added to it, you are a man with golden hands, all the respect for the work you do.

So my 6' ladder has two little slits on the top for holding a paint tray. Just lay the paint tray on the top of the ladder and stick the tray's clip edge thingies in the ladder's slit thingies. 😊

Hello sir, I started this for my massage studio. Then kinda got stuck. What kind of wax do I use? Just beeswax? Lowe’s or Home Depot they say they don’t know. I’m at the stage of sandpapering n buffing.

[@cassandragraber381]

Thank for the very informative video! I am wanting to do a wall with a brown glaze over the top. Should I use a wax to get that effect or tint a clear Venetian finish coat?

[@robs1214]

Where do I get one of those burnishing tools?

[@jakeleeding]

Hey Chris, great video! I have a question, here in the UK we plaster all of our walls. I notice in the US you only use drywall. Are there areas of the US where plastering is common place? Or have you come across it yourself? Thanks!

[@gmjent5671]

Jake Some what common in New Mexico in Santa Fe style custom homes, I did quite a few as a drywall and plaster contractor in the south west. I believe it is also found on the east coast veneer plaster over blue board.But I would guess 99% of homes in the US are drywall

[@elmeradams8781]

Way more then 99% of the homes in the US are drywall. If say basically 100%. It's cheap, and fast.

[@billlee3359]

Great video. Can you tell me the VP color you used? I may have missed it.

[@elipto]

Hello! Thanks a lot, you made it look easy - and you inspired me with that color. I have a few walls to try this on, can i buy a 5 gallon and then mix tints into the amounts I will use (I don’t know the mixing portion ratios). Doe this roll-on method work with acrylics and do you recommend acrylic plastering for a first timer? Also, I’ve primed the walls with killz primer, is that ok? And do I need to put another primer before the Venetian stucco? Thanks in advance for any reply!

[@stillsmallvoice4785]

what causes hairline cracks on venetian plaster? i didn't burnish it, but i did sand it after a few light coats. after a month, there were cracks in many areas. it's not that noticeable b/c of the color, but still really annoying. maybe i should have done heavier coats? it's also winter here so maybe the temp? can i still reapply some plaster in some areas? will it bond to the old plaster? your input is much appreciated.

[@RonaldLayman]

cracks form for drying to quickly and applying to thick

[@stillsmallvoice4785]

@@RonaldLayman i understand this to be the case for spider cracks, but not for hairline cracks? it's an absolute nightmare. i didn't apply very thick at all though, but my bathroom is very cold. i'm thinking of getting rid of it. i heard paint thinner or paint stripper works to scrape it off...or the good old fashioned, tim-consuming sanding.
