  Throughout the ages, plaster has always been used in the manufacture of homes and countless other buildings as well as for art.Plaster has been shown to stand the test of time and even today, buildings that are literally hundreds of years old can be found to contain plaster that is still in an outstanding condition.It is not surprising to know that the materials that are used to produce plaster have changed over the years, in the pursuit of better results and to cope with a wider variety of uses.The quality of plaster cannot be surpassed by plasterboard or any other newer material, which is why there is still such a high demand for good quality plasterers.
  
  The tools of the trade of plastering are almost identical to those used thousands of years ago, so most innovation has focused on the materials that are used.Plasterers are multi skilled tradesmen, and whilst plastering is something that is often tried by the DIY enthusiast, it takes years of training and experience to perfect.
  
  Depending on which stage of the plastering process you are doing, and what sort of finish you are going for there are a range of different plasters to choose from.However, essentially, the process is the same for every type of plaster, whereby a dry powder is mixed with water to form a thick paste which can then be spread across the desired surface to form a hard and durable coating.As wet plaster hardens, it leaves behind a perfect surface for decoration.
  
  The final coat or top coat of plaster is probably the most important as it is the final coat that will be seen, this coat of plaster is often referred to as a skim.If you want to skim a wall, you will firstly need to ensure that the the surface is ready to be skimmed, which is something that is all too often overlooked by the DIY enthusiast.Surfaces such as plasterboard or backing coat can be skimmed over without preparing the surface, but other surfaces may need a variety of preparations.If you intend skimming over existing plaster or previously painted surfaces then a coat of diluted PVA bonding should be applied, and if this is neglected, there is every chance that your new plaster will crack.
