We are unwavering supporters of ONLY using professional-grade plasters for decorative finishes. It is true, “you get what you pay for”. When hiring a professional finisher to create a textured finish on your wall, specifically ask what kind of plaster they will use. Joint compound (a.k.a wall mud) is meant for smoothing out drywall seams, it is not a reliable decorative finish. A reliable plaster will not chip, crack, and in most cases self sealing. Feel free to call Average to art and they will be happy to direct you to the appropriate plasters for your decorating needs.
