Amazing! I am an artist. When I build my home, I will install venetian plaster (lime). The walls will all be of lime plaster to begin with. I can hardly wait to get started! Thick, substantial walls with luscious lime plaster, focal walls of venetian plaster to show off my artwork. They are also waterproof so the bathrooms and kitchen will be a must. I hate water damage and mold!
For the Lime marmorino, it lists a bunch of colors. The one that pops up when you hit the link is Coffeehouse Ochre. Is that the color you used for this video?
Beautiful beautiful n beautiful. One question, if accidentally make a scratch, how to fix it, lime plaster is really hard to deal with the bubble Peel off or scratchs
that's a beautiful job but wouldn't you get the same effect wit just three coats of grassello ? why the marmorino? is that to fill the inperfect walls?
Once waxed, is the surface repairable without fuss, or does the wax need to be stripped...and is that possible? I'd sure like to find a slightly elastomeric version of the plaster products!
Your preferred source (at last update) was Vasari Plaster and Stucco, LLC, and I'm looking at their Amazon offerings. Wet mixes are prohibitively expensive to ship here, but they've got two dry bag-mixes. Are those functionally equivalent to the coarse/fine grades of premixed materials you would use, typically? (One is "lime plaster with coarse marble aggregate - medium to heavy texture," and the other is "lime plaster with marble powder smooth texture," so they seem approximately right.) What say you? I'm guessing I'd be adding my own pigment to those two, unlike the premixed merlot you were working with, for example, yes? Also, the 'micro primer' link has gone dark (and trowel link has gone...weird) but I'm not sure what the micro-primer was used for anyway. Did you mention it? Also curious about the pricey trowels. Would a single all-purpose trowel really get so scratched from use on all grades of aggregate as to cause problems with finer-finishing steps, eg burnishing?
Don't know if you figured it out yet but you can use one trowel for everything. Just make sure when doing finish coats and burnishing that your trowel has no nicks in it. Sharpen trowel with fine file or sandpaper before using for finish. Or just have a dedicated finish trowel you keep maintained. Just so you know, you can also make your own lime plaster if you re having a hard time sourcing it...but if you can, buying it from a supplier is the way to go
@@TimKollat Thanks for that. I ended up thinking I might well end up with a lot of pricey experimental materials lying around and went instead with a sorta ghetto-faux method of getting a different look (white mod thinset burnished super thin, then ragged) that took forever, but used only common materials. I do hope to return to doing something like this in a more worthy project, so it's good to know about the trowel-tooling issues. And during that experiment, my shiny stainless pool-trowel did indeed leave dark residue, so if I'd meant to use it as a show-through color, I'd have been screwed. I wouldn't do that method again...too fussy, though it got me a nice subtle texture as a base.
Absolutely love it. My question is, how does it react to wood heat? Does extra warmth, let's say I do my celling, affect the wax? Also could the wax absorb small amounts of wood smoke over a period of time. Just curious how set the wax is? Could the wax lose its luster or soften with the added warmth?
D. Montana the heat won’t hurt the wax meaning melt it. It won’t loose its sheen but it could discolor from any soot from Accumulation overtime just like any other painted surface. But if that does happen you can see if we take a magic eraser and wipe it down it that we’re to happen.
Amazing work. I was looking to do a course in the uk but I'm going to learn from you. I have lots of walls to practice on and time to perfect. My only question is where can I get the products as I am in the uk.
How do I go about ordering your products? We are remodeling our bathroom and Venetian Plaster is exactly what I’ve been looking for to do to the top half of my walls. And that time has come for me to DIY.
Todd Roy no, you only need one coat of Wax but the look of the plaster in the compression and furnishing of the plaster is what gives it the look that everybody desires modern masters a good product but it’s apples and oranges want to comes to traditional polish why blaster

Every time I watch this I love it!!!
Just watched this again and I'm still stunned by the richness of the result. Hope you're well.
I'm a Faux Artist in Austin Texas and am doing a lot of Venetian Plaster Projects. This looks like a great product to use!
WOW..THATS MY FAVE BY FAR..GOORGEOUS!!GREAT WORK AND INSTRUCTIONS
I love the dark wet look what would you recommend to keep it dark and rich
You are an artist... beautiful work! Thanks for sharing
Your Italian polishing wax, does not show where to buy it. Can you give another place to buy?

Tasty, but, Merlot, methinks. Inspiring, nice tutorial!
Thanks so much Ronald. An amazing result.
Nice! How much money for square feet? Thank you.
When I was working with someone about a decade ago it was 9$ Sq ft up to 6'. The $ increased above the 6' mark.
very nice, very well demonstrated
that's a beautiful job but wouldn't you get the same effect wit just three coats of grassello ? why the marmorino? is that to fill the inperfect walls?
As he says, “the reason I do it is that this is going to even out surface imperfections”.
what was the color of the marmorino base coat, ronald? Spoonful of Sugar?
Nice job Ron! What do you use for sample boards?
Absolutely stunning!
My God, that is sooooo beautiful!
Atelieri Design thank you

Why do you use two different products? How does doing that make it better looking?
I use Marmorino as my base to even out irregular surfaces and give my grasello a smooth base.
Wow , I love this

I see the pattern.2 coat is opposite direction than the first?
What is in your base coat? A microprimer, quartz primer, kiltz primer?
Are there classes I could take I'm in Boise Idaho I own a painting business
Beautiful❣️
It is the base that you always leave out.
Nice finish, what kind of paste wax do you use?
The wax used in this video is. O longer available due to covid call 13233082600 and ask for hydro wax I just worked it and it’s a good wax
Make sure to mention my name when ordering
Thanks
Amazing work. I was looking to do a course in the uk but I'm going to learn from you. I have lots of walls to practice on and time to perfect. My only question is where can I get the products as I am in the uk.
Hi, have you found out where to buy all products? Did you start learning from his videos? Thanks mate
Hi Anthony. Did you manage to find your products? I'm looking to start practising this at home on my walls. I'm in West London
Hey Ronald, quick question. If you have noticed spots where the wax may have dried on the wall, how would you fix that issue?
where can i find that white board to practice on?
Can this be done on walls that have im perfections

hello, if you still need any help on venetian plaster, lmk,
I want to try this on my own. In a small wall in my house. Question, what board are you saying to make your sample. Thank you.
Jose Trujillo mdf works fine just primed with lime primer
This is like watching Bob Ross on the tv lol
What kind of sheet are you using to apply the material
How much would a standard room would cost?
Beautiful colour
where can I buy the sample board?
What kind of board is that?
Can this method be used with the wildfire visible or invisible UV reactive top coat?
Jake Gish for the plaster? No, add it to the top coat
Thanks@@RonaldLayman
Hi what do you use as surface to do the samples ?
This is like...Bob Ross for plaster.
If Bob Ross has some Merlot before filming....😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I really enjoyed it but I was like he sooooooo mellow I'm about to fall asleep...
Super 👍🏻
Thanks
Quality 😎👍
What products do you use
Check the description.
what is your sample board
Daryle Burch Masonite 3/8 from Home Depot
Can this be done on drywall ?
vinroy johnson yes
@@RonaldLayman how much different is this product from drywall compound?
Can you get the same gloss finish with Modern Masters Venetian plaster? And can you put multiple coats of wax finish?
Todd Roy no, you only need one coat of Wax but the look of the plaster in the compression and furnishing of the plaster is what gives it the look that everybody desires modern masters a good product but it’s apples and oranges want to comes to traditional polish why blaster
