USG veneer plaster systems provide strong, highly abrasion-resistant surfaces. Their products are designed for one or two-coat work over gypsum bases or directly to concrete block or properly prepared monolithic concrete. Both application types offer a truly monolithic surface that is superior for critical light conditions.
USG’s conventional plaster systems provide a high quality finish as well as the capability to create complex high-end surfaces such as vaults, domes and columns. These plasters feature excellent acoustical performance, have proven fire resistance, increased abused resistance and design flexibility. Depending on your project they may be the perfect system to attain a uniform, monolithic, blemish-free, smooth surface with excellent wear resistance.
When conditions exist that affect the adhesion or the normal setting time of conventional plasters, veneer plasters or lime finish plasters, USG offers special additives in a variety of formulations. Their plaster retarder slows the setting time of plasters (including lime based plasters); their plaster accelerator reduces the setting time of plasters; their plaster bonder provides improved adhesion to a wide variety of substrates.
