Plastering and rendering are both the process


of covering walls

Plastering, rendering :
The main difference in the two practices is
that plastering refers to coating the interior
walls, whilst rendering is the coating of
exterior walls.
Surface Finish
The basic composition for both rendering or plastering is broadly similar -
cement, sand, water and sometimes lime. For rendering, a coarser, higher
proportion of sand is preferred. For plaster finer sand is used in the interests of a
smoother finish.

Brick wall + plaster ( 12 mm thick ness) + wall putty+primer + paint/ wall tiling/wallpaper

thickness of plaster depends on material for construction

Plastering of wall is measured in meter square

after wall plastering sandpaper is used for smoothning of the surface


Surface Finish
wall putty

Wall putty is a well-known term used for a material with high plasticity, which is
very similar in the texture of clay and is typically used in domestic construction as a
primer to colour or protective sub-layer to paint primer as well as a sealant or filler
Surface Finish
Wall Primer

Wall Primer is a polymer-modified, white cement-based water thinnable


undercoat product. It can be directly used as a primer on cement
plasters, RCC and for repainting surfaces.

Most primers dry to the touch within 30 minutes to 1 hour

carbonate, (CaCO3), sometimes known as "whiting"
Surface Finish

Distemper is a water based wall paint and its main constituents are chalk
lime, glue and water. Distemper is normally brush applied and gives a better

Emulsion Paint
Emulsion paints use polyvinyl acetate and polystyrene as binding
materials, and they contain driers like cobalt and manganese.

They can be water or oil based, and pigments are used to achieve the
desired color

Anticorrosive paint is characterized by its chemical resistance, as
implied by its name.

It is made from linseed oil, zinc chrome and fine sand.

It is normally used for metallic surfaces and pipes.
