Slow-set gauging plaster

Adds strength and hardness to the finish surface
  • Slow-setting interior gauging plaster.
  • For smooth troweled applications over gypsum plaster basecoat.
  • Add water, lime, mix and apply.

Gold Bond® Super-White Gauging Plaster Slow Set is designed for interior smooth trowel application over a gypsum plaster basecoat. It is specially ground, calcined gypsum, which readily mixes with water and lime putty. Proper proportioning is essential since gauging adds strength and hardness to the finished surface by reinforcing the plastic non-setting lime against shrinkage and cracking. Complies with ASTM Designation C28.

Basic Uses

A finish coat of gypsum gauging plaster and finish lime, job mixed two parts hydrated lime to one part plaster by weight, is designed primarily for interior smooth trowel application over a gypsum plaster basecoat.

Smooth finish plasters should be applied at a thickness of not more than 1/16" (1.6 mm). Texture finishes should be applied at a thickness of not more than 1/8" (3.2 mm).

Advantages

  • Readily mixes with water and lime putty.
  • Adds strength and hardness to the finished surface.
