The best gypsum plasters

Plaster compositions based on gypsum are currently the most popular among builders. They are easy to prepare, apply and smooth.

5 Founding Gipswell

A high level of vapor permeability has plaster Founding Gipswell. A gypsum-based compound is recommended for leveling subfloors inside buildings with low humidity. Plaster is versatile, it can be used to process ceilings and walls from any materials. The manufacturer added polymer additives to the composition to increase adhesion. After drying, a flat and smooth surface is obtained. Can be painted, wallpapered, tiled. Further puttying is not required for wet grouting. The plaster is easy to apply and level.

Professional plasterers speak flatteringly about such qualities of Founding Gypswell plaster as high vapor permeability, ease of application, affordable price, and the formation of a smooth surface. The disadvantages of the builders include the unstable quality of the composition, too rapid drying of the solution.

4 Unis Teplon

Unis Teplon gypsum plaster has a snow-white color. It is intended for finishing ceilings and walls indoors with a normal level of humidity for painting or wallpapering.The composition can be applied with a thickness of up to 50 mm without the use of a plaster mesh. It can be used in the bathroom or kitchen when leveling the surface under the tiles. Thanks to a special recipe, the manufacturer managed to reduce the setting time of the plaster. The use of this material allows you to reduce the cost of subsequent painting of walls or ceilings in white. The coating creates a favorable microclimate in the room.

Domestic masters of interior decoration highlight several positive qualities of Unis Teplon gypsum plaster. It is plastic, affordable and moisture resistant. It dries to a white surface. The disadvantages of the material is insufficient adhesion, due to which it is necessary to pre-prime porous substrates.

3 Ceresit CT 35

Ceresit decorative plaster stands out for its high quality. It is designed for thin layer application and is available in several colors. The composition can be applied both on plastered surfaces and on concrete bases, and on chipboard panels. The mixture can be used not only indoors, but also outside. Decorative plaster is recommended for use in the construction of thermal insulation systems for facades in combination with expanded polystyrene or mineral wool slabs. There are various modifications of the composition, for example, for painting or for winter use (up to -10°C). The material is impact resistant, UV resistant, frost resistant.

Finishers speak flatteringly about such properties of Ceresit decorative plaster as vapor permeability, frost resistance, and resistance to adverse weather events.The disadvantage of the composition is the high price.

2 Volma Canvas

Domestic plaster Volma Canvas is popular with finishers due to the optimal combination of price and technical parameters. It is made on a gypsum basis using unique chemical and mineral additives. Distinctive features of the plaster are such properties as good water-holding capacity, excellent adhesion, optimal drying time. The composition can be used to level ceilings and walls, followed by painting, tiling or wallpapering. After drying, the surface is smooth, which eliminates the operation of puttying.

Builders highlight in the reviews such strengths of Volma Canvas plaster as affordable price, plasticity of the working solution, ease of application. Of the negative qualities, color heterogeneity is noted after complete drying.

1 Knauf Rotband

The name of Knauf's Rotband plaster has already become a household name among builders and finishers. A gypsum-based mixture is intended for leveling surfaces inside buildings. The composition can be used for finishing walls and ceilings of residential premises, as well as in preparation for facing bathrooms and kitchens. Distinctive feature Rotband is the ability to apply to any base, from concrete to brick. Thanks to the introduction of polymer fillers and light additives into the gypsum base, it was possible to achieve high adhesion, easy application and high thickness (up to 10 mm) in one pass.

Domestic builders call Knauf Rotband the best gypsum plaster for interior work. Its advantages are environmental friendliness, fire resistance, vapor permeability, high-quality adhesion. The only downside is the high price.

The best mineral (lime) plasters

Mineral plaster is the combined name for mixtures based on natural materials such as lime, cement and gypsum. In our case, it is lime compositions that are considered, the main advantage of which is better plasticity and ease of application. The price is also pleasing, but it should be understood that only light interior decoration is available for such mixtures. For example, if you plan to paint or apply a decorative layer on the walls, such a product is ideal.And for finishing with stone or heavy wallpaper, you should choose another mixture, more dense and resistant.

5 Perfekta Frontpro master

Judging by the descriptions of the goods presented on the official website of the manufacturer, we have a real elite plaster, if at all it is permissible to apply such an epithet to building materials. The brand is quite popular and puts a lot of emphasis on marketing, but if you look at the technical side, it becomes clear that we have quite a standard lime plaster with the usual characteristics and not the most attractive price on the market.

The grain size here is half a millimeter and this is the main advantage of the mixture. It is applied easily and does not create a large load on the base. But the same factor makes the layer extremely weak. It is not worth using heavy types of finishes on top of it. There is also a high frost resistance index, but it makes no sense, provided that only the interior decoration is available for this mixture, it is difficult to say. It is permissible to apply the solution on the wall in the range from 5 to 40 millimeters. At the same time, the consumption per square meter with a thickness of a centimeter is about 13 kilograms. Not the most economical mix.

4 KREPS Extra-light

In order for the plaster to be as plastic and easy to apply as possible, it is necessary to reduce the size of the fraction. With mineral mixtures, 1 millimeter is considered normal, but in this case we see an indicator almost half as much - 0.63, and this is the smallest fraction on the market among lime-cement products.It is thanks to this indicator that the plaster is applied to the walls as plastically as possible, without creating sharp drops, and after hardening it is easily leveled. Unfortunately, this also has its drawbacks. The layer is not the best in terms of hardness and load. However, no lime mortars can boast of these qualities.

Frost resistance index 35 units. External finishing with such plaster cannot be carried out, even despite the rather high coefficient of resistance to moisture. In the bathroom, it can be used on the walls without any problems. The mixture is suitable for both manual and machine application, and in addition, it will please with its price and economy. For one square meter of area, only one and a half kilograms of the mixture is required.

3 Quick mix MKE

In fact, any mineral plaster made on the basis of natural components is environmentally friendly. True, some unscrupulous manufacturers are trying to put harmful components into it, but in this case, because of this, you can not be afraid at all. The product undergoes strict quality control and has all the necessary documentation confirming its purity.

The mixture is intended for machine application to walls and ceilings for further felt grouting. It is available exclusively for interior finishing with application at temperatures from 5 to 30 degrees with a plus sign. Since the mixture with the addition of cement, the plaster can be used in bathrooms and rooms with high humidity. Direct contact with water is not recommended for her for obvious reasons. In general, the characteristics are quite adequate, but nothing stands out except for the confirmed safety.And you will have to pay a lot for it. The price tag is the main drawback of this product.

2 PEREL TeploRob 0518

You can form your own opinion about the plaster of a particular manufacturer only after working with it for a long time. Judging by the reviews, we have, if not the best, then one of the best products on the market today. This is a mineral plaster based on a lime-cement mixture, which can be used both for internal and external works. A big rarity for such compositions.

The size of the fraction is quite large, 1.25 mm, that is, the plaster is intended for rough finishing. Due to its unique composition, it has thermal insulation characteristics, and can be applied with a thickness of up to 3 centimeters inclusive. The frost resistance index is not the largest, only 35 units, so the exterior finish is likely to be unavailable in most regions of Russia. In the reviews, the product is considered exclusively for internal use, and here it has practically no equal. If we discard the relatively high price tag, because of which the plaster did not get into the first place in the rating.

1 Bolars Uniplast

The most popular plaster brands come from Germany. They are produced mainly in Russia, and in this case we see an exclusively local product, thanks to which it has the best price, and the quality is not inferior to eminent companies. The mixture is quite large, with a grain fraction of one millimeter. The composition is lime-cement, that is, more durable compared to pure, lime mortars.

Mixes are available only for interior decoration, and the temperature in the room should not be lower than 5 and not higher than 30 degrees. The use of plaster in the bathroom is available, but it is better not to expose it to direct exposure to water. The approximate consumption is 13-14 kilograms per square meter, with an application thickness of one centimeter. Not the most economical indicator, but given the price of the product, it is quite acceptable. The solution remains workable for 3 hours, and it can be applied to walls up to two centimeters thick. An excellent option for leveling walls and rough repairs at the best price on the market.

The best acrylic plasters

Exterior wall decoration requires materials that have a whole list of features: frost resistance, impact resistance, fading resistance, adhesion to the surface, and this is not a complete list. The best candidate for such a position is acrylic plaster, created on the basis of resin, which is characterized by maximum resistance to almost any type of influence. Such plaster is sold, as a rule, in finished form. To simplify the application process, it can be diluted with water. Interior decoration is also acceptable, and in some cases the acrylic mixture is already decorative, that is, after tinting, it does not require additional finishing.

5 Perel Acrilico "Bark beetle"

If your gypsum wall is constantly exposed to moisture and needs to be protected, textured acrylic stucco is the best option. One of them is in front of us now, and it is the cheapest mixture you can find. At the same time, she has a lot of characteristics worthy of the title of the best.For example, ideal adhesion with any, even cement and plaster surfaces. High level of durability and resistance to cold. Excellent vapor permeability.

And all this - for only 1,300 rubles. Due to the ease and possibility of applying the mixture in a thin layer, it is permissible to use it even when finishing polyurethane products. The plaster is precisely the finishing one, therefore, in its pure form it has a neutral color, which can be changed with the help of a color scheme at your discretion. The texture of the coating is “bark beetle”, that is, the main direction is precisely the exterior finish, although this style is often used indoors.

4 Litokol LITOTHERM Grafica Acryl

Before us is a universal plaster, made on the basis of both acrylic and polymer resins. The main area of ​​​​application is exterior decoration, although indoor application is allowed. The product has the necessary environmental safety compliance certificates, although many homeowners are hesitant to use such mixtures inside the house.

The color of the mixture is neutral white. It is ideal for tinting in any shades and does not fade under the influence of ultraviolet radiation. A special plus is the rapid drying, which occurs in just five hours at a temperature of 5 to 10 degrees above zero. It is used exclusively as a top coat with protective functions. Even a gypsum base can be applied under it, which will be reliably protected by the top layer. In general, a great option, but not the most attractive price. Quite a standard product, which is easy to find an alternative with better characteristics.

3 Perel Acrilico

Acrylic mixes are traditionally expensive, which is not surprising, given their composition and technical features. In this case, we see the most affordable price tag, while the quality of the goods is at the highest level. This is a completely white plaster based on acrylic and mineral resins. Its texture is a “fur coat”, and it can be used both for external and internal wall decoration.

The permissible application temperature is from 5 to 30 degrees, while at the time of application there should be no direct sunlight, as well as precipitation. Just two hours after application, the mixture becomes dry to the touch, but complete drying is achieved only after two days. As they say in the reviews, the plaster is as elastic as possible. Easy to apply, and after shows excellent results in all directions. It perfectly withstands mechanical and natural influences. Easy to clean and has excellent adhesion to almost any surface.

2 Quick mix KHK

No matter what materials your house is built from, this plaster has the best adhesion to any surface, and this is its main advantage over competitors. This is the most popular product on the market, and reviews about it are extremely positive.

Acrylic mix with a matte finish. It is easy to tint and does not fade under the influence of ultraviolet radiation. The density of the mixture is approximately 1.8 units, which is an excellent result, although not the highest. The texture of the application is a “fur coat”, that is, we have a full-fledged decorative mixture that does not require additional finishing. The main application is designed for external walls, but can also be used for interior work.The composition does not contain components hazardous to health, which is confirmed by numerous documents. The price of the product is also quite reasonable. For acrylic ready-mixes, 2 thousand per 25 kilograms is the norm, although you can find cheaper, but also with lower specifications.

1 TICIANA DELUXE Alexandria

Among plaster mixtures there is also a premium segment, and now we have one of such representatives. This is a premium acrylic resin mix that can be used both indoors and outdoors. The product is decorative and can be tinted in any color. The initial color is as neutral as possible, so there will be no problems with the selection of a shade.

At the height and technical features. The mixture is resistant to any influences. It has better vapor permeability, easily tolerates contact with water, and is also able to repel various contaminants from its surface. Walls finished with this mixture can be easily washed with a hose without the use of special cleaners. Adhesion is so high that even a strong pressure will not allow it to exfoliate from the surface. The only drawback here, if you can call it that, is the price. The mixture is very expensive, and it is not difficult to calculate how many standard cans are needed, given the consumption of 1.3 kilograms per square meter of area.

The best polymer (silicone and silicate) plasters

5 UNIS LR White pearl

Ready polymer plaster can be tinted. It can be given any color, which cannot be said about dry mixes. It is desirable to apply a decorative layer over such plaster, but the manufacturer describes his product as a finishing one. In this case, we see a unique color of the finished surface - pearl matte. It is very difficult to find an analogue on the market. Of course, the question of beauty is subjective, but if it suits you, then the walls will not have to be additionally painted or finished.

The mixture fell into a not the most honorable place in our ranking due to the large number of restrictions on use. It cannot be used in rooms with high humidity. External finishing is also not available for it. It will not work to call the product universal, since it requires a constant temperature from 10 to 30 degrees, but it will please the economy, which has settled at less than a kilogram per square with a layer thickness of one millimeter.

4 Knauf Rotband

If we start only from the reviews of real users, then Knauf will be the undisputed leader in the number of positive comments. Its products are praised for all aspects, no matter what product is being considered. In this case, we see polymer plaster for the rough finish of the walls inside the room.

The basis is a gypsum mixture with a tint from pure white to pink. The color of the mixture does not affect the quality aspects. It can be applied to both walls and ceilings. High adhesion, plasticity and relatively fast drying make it possible to use plaster in the most difficult places. The economy of the mixture will also please. For one square meter of area with a layer thickness of a centimeter, only 8.5 kilograms will be required, which is almost two times lower than with the same input from competitors. Simply the best product for the money, and ideally if all layers of finishes are made with mixtures of the same brand.

3 Bergauf Bau Interior

Polymer plaster is one of the most expensive on the market. This is not surprising, given its composition and technical characteristics. But there are manufacturers showing the best price for their products, and one of them is now in front of us. Despite the German origin, the product is completely Russian, made from local raw materials, which leads to its reduction in price. At the same time, the technical side remains at the highest level.

Plaster can be applied to almost any surface, except for metal and wood. It has excellent adhesion and dries quickly after application. The mixture can be used both indoors and outdoors.The composition does not contain formaldehydes harmful to health, which is confirmed by numerous certificates of conformity. But it should be understood that the dry mixture is designed for a rough finish. On top of it, you will have to impose another decorative layer. The ideal place for application are rooms with a high level of humidity, such as bathrooms.

2 Ceresit ST 64

If you choose a sales leader among plaster mixtures, it will definitely be the German brand Ceresit. The most popular, often called the best and with a unique combination of high quality and attractive price. In this case, we see a polymer mixture intended for finishing walls. Both external and internal finishing is available to her: despite the presence of chemical components in the composition, it is completely safe and has all the necessary certificates.

Even weak gypsum plaster can be under its layer. The polymer will reliably protect it from any influences, including mechanical ones. The price is also the most attractive, especially considering the economical consumption per square meter. The mixture is applied in a thin layer and can be tinted in any color. It does not require any additional finishing.

1 Euro-L Effect

Polymer plasters are most often produced in finished form, but there are exceptions, one of which is now in front of us. This is a dry mixture diluted with water in the same way as gypsum plaster. Its basis is mineral cement, but with the addition of polymeric, synthetic resins.It can be used for both indoor and outdoor work.

The maximum applied layer on the surface is up to 30 millimeters, at a consumption of 15 kilograms of the mixture for each centimeter of thickness. In finished form, the solution lives for more than 4 hours, which is the best indicator among dry mixes. Somewhat pumps up the frost resistance index, which is only 25 units. But the plaster has excellent vapor permeability and resistance to any kind of influence, both natural and mechanical. It is extremely difficult to damage the applied and completely dried layer, which is its main competitive advantage over conventional cement compositions.
