Marmorino is a type of venetian plaster used in buildings. This material is also known as Stucco Lamundo. Unlike the other types of venetian plaster, Marmorino is more expensive than Stucco Lamundo. In this article, you will learn how to determine the cost of Marmorino and Stucco Lamundo. Learn how to identify the difference between these two plasters and how they can benefit your project.
Marmorino
A combination of marble and lime putty, Marmorino Venetian Plaster is a durable, water-resistant finish used on interior walls and ceilings. Its white color resembles that of marble or other polished stone and is hard to the touch, yet has a soft visual sheen. Its smooth finish can create movement and a beautiful look in a room or home. Its high sheen can be achieved by tinting the finish with other colors.
This ancient Venetian plaster has a long history, going back to Pompeii villas and other structures. In fact, Vitruvius mentions it in his history of the city of Rome from the 1st century B.C. Despite its illustrious history, Marmorino was only discovered centuries later and came into its own in the 15th century. While it is not as durable as limestone, its water-resistant properties make it a great choice for exterior walls and interior ceilings.
Stucco Lamundo
Stucco Lamundo is a genuine lime-based Venetian plaster. Its sand-like texture and durable finish create a marble-like effect on almost any interior surface. This lightweight, durable finish is ideal for interior spaces and is highly flexible in application. Lamundo can be tinted to almost any color to match a variety of interior design styles. Using this product on interior walls and ceilings is an excellent way to give your home or office a classic Italian style.
Stucco Lamundo is available in white or in any color. If you are looking for a particular color, you can use machine colorants or universal tints to customize the shade of the finish. Meoded also sells a wide range of natural concentrated VOC-free pigments to enhance the color of your Venetian plaster. Note that the actual color may differ from your monitor. It is therefore recommended to test the product in a small area before applying it to the entire surface.
Marmorino Tintoretto
A natural lime and marble dust paste, Marmorino Tintoretto is used as a decorative wall plaster, especially on interior walls. Its unique properties include an expansive range of finishing looks, including a distressed or marble-like finish. In addition, Marmorino Tintoretto is a natural anti-mold agent. Its versatility makes it suitable for many purposes.
The product is packaged in tins of five or 20 kg. It comes with a guarantee of 12 months, but you must dispose of it properly. Apply the tint to new or recently finished natural lime plaster. Do not apply Marmorino Tintoretto to old or ruined walls or ceilings, as it will peel off and be void of any sheen. Marmorino Tintoretto can be applied to new or old mortars, too.
