PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: The strongest of our plasters, MARITTIMO draws its beauty from the Mediterranean villages of Morocco, as the crushed sea shell aggregate within gives the plaster its strength.
*Note: We have made an improvement to the formula of the MARITTIMO clay plaster. New batches made after 09/24/09 are whiter and more like Loma Snow Canyon in color and more similar to Loma in the way it applies to the wall under a trowel. The current bags will aslo be stamped with "New Formula".
PRODUCT OVERVIEW:
LOMA is always used as the base coat. Surfaces with texture will require a thicker base coat. Marittimo is applied as the second coat at 1/32 of an inch over the basecoat, for a combined thickness of up to 1/16 inch.
Our most durable plaster, Marittimo draws its inspiration from Mediterranean and Caribbean finishes. Seashell aggregate gives it a magnificent, subtle speckle that adds depth to any interior environment. Made of a variety of clays, crushed seashells and natural mineral pigments, Marittimo is easy to apply, feels polished, and is wonderful to the touch.
Hand troweled or sprayable application.
COVERAGE: One 50-lb. bag will cover 160-180 square feet per coat — depending on the substrate texture.
