How is Swahili different from textured plasters?
Many buyers confuse Swahili with decorative plaster. How to distinguish these two materials? What are their advantages and disadvantages? The following article will answer these and many other questions.
Decorative structural plaster- a material that has gained unprecedented popularity among Russian consumers. You have a huge choice to choose from the lineup patterns, designs and finishing effects. Textured plaster will allow you to recreate a classic Venetian interior, imitation wood, natural stone, a painting by a famous artist or even a portrait of your favorite dog! Textured plaster of walls is the basis for limitless flights of imagination! Separately on the list decorative materials It is worth highlighting the Swahili material. Structural plaster for walls is very different from the Swahili you already love. So what are these differences?
Decorative structural plaster has a number of advantages. For example, finishing with plaster does not require careful surface preparation and perfectly masks minor defects in the base. Structural plaster coating can be applied in a fairly thick layer - up to 10 mm. Also, structural plaster is applied to almost any surface, both outside and inside the room. Wall plaster has excellent resistance to mechanical stress and is fireproof. Textured plastering of walls is carried out using any paint that has properties suitable for the given room. Well, a pleasant addition to all the listed advantages will, of course, decorative finishing interior plaster in a variety of options.
Swahili decorative coating is rather acrylic paint. It is more convenient to apply and allows you to create many finishing effects. The material combines the shimmer of a smooth glossy surface and a rough sandy texture. Finishing textured plaster takes longer than Swahili finish because it is easier to apply and dries faster. Thanks to these properties, you can apply the material to a larger area in a shorter time.
Working with Swahili decorative coating begins with surface preparation. Primer is applied to the dust-free base. In this case, experts recommend using materials from TM “BOLARS” - “Strengthening” or Acryl Primer.
After the primer has dried, apply acrylic paint Uno Decor. Choose the same paint color as the Swahili base coat.
After 12 hours, after the “substrate” has completely dried, apply a decorative coating. Swahili's sandy effect requires application in a thin, even layer. To do this, use a brush. The textured surface is created by light cross movements of another brush. It is important to keep the brush dry. Use a napkin to dry the ends of the instrument.
After 4-6 hours to give the surface additional protective properties, use Masco Riflessi varnish.
After the varnish has dried, you can enjoy original decor interior - a scattering of precious sand on the walls.

How often have you thought about the possibility of doing repairs yourself? This is financially beneficial, you have the opportunity not to rush into deadlines and do the work at a pace that is convenient for you, in the end, it’s just interesting and exciting to do something in your home yourself. But what to do if you are tired of simple wallpaper, and you want a new, bright and non-standard solution. Most often, by doing repairs ourselves, we deny ourselves non-standard solutions, citing the complexity of the work and the high cost of materials. However, there is an inexpensive, easy to use, fashionable and nice solution— decorative coating Swahili (Svahili).
Swahili is a decorative covering for interior decoration. You can process walls, friezes, plasterboard ceilings, columns, in general, any architectural details. The coating is made from natural fillers and elements, functional additives and metallized pigment.
Feature of the material
The peculiarity of the coating is that it alternates glossy and matte textures, smooth and ribbed areas, due to which an amazing play of light and glare is achieved, creating the feeling of a sandstorm.
The color scheme of the coating is based on either silver or gold.
Method of applying Swahili to the wall
First, stock up on everything necessary tools and additional materials.
Choose the color you will paint the walls and purchase the appropriate color scheme. The “Svahili” coating can be tinted exclusively with water-dispersed pastes.
Buy acrylic washable paint white(then give it the required color and tone) and of course the decorative coating itself is Swahili.
Tools and materials
To work you will need:
- roller (velor);
- an ordinary foam sponge (you can use it for washing dishes, but without the abrasive side);
- metal trowel (necessarily with a chamfer and rounded corners);
- flat wide brush (preferably with a long handle) 2 pieces;
- brush for wall decoration.
Be careful! Do not add anything other than color to the coating. When diluting Swahili with water, be careful not to dilute the composition by more than 10%. It is not recommended to work at temperatures below 5 degrees and above 30 degrees. The wall should also not be too cold or hot. The permissible humidity during operation is 80% or less.
Be sure to constantly ventilate the room and keep the windows open.
And so, now you have everything you need to get started. You can start applying the coating.
The working process
The base must be applied to the surface prepared in advance. Take the paint of your choice and apply it to the wall in one coat. Now you can rest, as the paint must dry and only 12 hours after the paint has completely dried, you can continue working.
The paint has dried, 12 hours have passed and you can start applying Swahili. Paint – the coating should be the same color as the paint already applied to the wall, but half a shade darker.
You can choose several different patterns and create them on your surface using Swahili.
For example, if you want to make a “cloud” design, you need to dip only the tip of the brush (about 1 cm) into the paint. Place the brush perpendicular to the wall and make a short stroke (about 10 cm). All subsequent strokes should be exactly the same and placed randomly. While the paint is not completely dry, use a dry brush to collect it into small oblong “clouds”.
If you want, you can go over the wet surface with a dry brush vertically or diagonally and you will get a pattern similar to the pattern of Wenge wood.
You can make lace patterns. To do this, you need to treat the not yet dry coating with a foam sponge, drawing a chaotic arc-shaped pattern.
Another decor option is to create a canvas texture. To do this, the paint you initially cover the wall with should be two to three times darker than your coating. After drying and waiting 12 hours, cover the wall with an even layer of Swahili. Without allowing it to dry out, brush the wall decoration brush vertically and then horizontally to create a canvas texture. It is recommended to treat the surface one step at a time square meter walls.
After finishing work, the coating needs to dry. You will be able to touch the wall in an hour, everything will dry completely in a day. But the material will harden only after 14 days.
Working with Swahili coating is easy. You can create unique design apartments, without resorting to the help of craftsmen and professionals, completely independently. The speed and ease of working with the material will create an unprecedented result even for beginners who have never held a roller in their hands.
