Roll and brush renderings



AURO plasters are ready for processing – with rollers, brushes or trowels. Application requires a clean, dry surface. Absorbent substrates such as gypsum board require pre-treatment with Plaster primer No. 301.

For application with roller or brush, Auro offers plasters in various grains. Natural resin primer No. 302 has a very fine grain and, due to its smoothness and a less brilliant white tone, is ideally suited for subsequent glazing.

Depending on the method of applcation and the chosen grain, various structural effects can be obtained with our Roll and brush renderings No. 307 (fine), No. 308 (medium), or No. 309 (coarse). Application with a brush, for example, results in a surface appearance very different from a rolled surface.

Natural fibre plaster No. 311 can be modelled into expressive forms with a spatula, your hands, etc. Creative ideas are the order of the day: Mix wool or other materials into the plaster or make impressions with clamshells…! 

Tinting colours can also be mixed in, and this plaster also looks good covered with wall glazes. For instructions, please see the menu items ‘Tinting’ or ‘Colour wash’.


Painting over older surfaces
If older coats, e.g. on woodchip wallpaper, are to be painted over, first make sure these surfaces will still take up paint. Otherwise, the previous wall coverings must be completely removed, which is for instance the case with old ceiling coats that no longer adhere well.
