Unattractive wooden walls can be plastered
How is the garden house plastered?
Low-cost OSB boards and wood are excellently suited as low-cost construction material for the gazebo. However, these plates are not visually appealing. As an alternative to paneling with panels or plastic, it is advisable to plaster the arbor and beautify it.
Tool and material list:
When plastering a wooden house, it is recommended to use a plaster enriched with artificial fibers. This is flexible, that is: If the wood works, the material adapts well. This reduces the risk of cracking.
The particularities
Since the natural material wood can absorb water, it would swell due to the moisture from the plaster. If the water evaporates again, the order would crumble. That's why you need to attach special HWL or Polysterolplatten before plastering.
Alternatively, you can use an acrylic primer. This must, in order to protect sufficiently from penetrating moisture, be applied completely opaque and gapless.
The further preparation
Subsequently, a reinforcing fabric is applied to this substrate. It serves as a primer and ensures that the plaster does not flake off. The mats are fixed with commercial tile adhesive on the Polysterolplatten or the primer.
Now it's time to plaster
Do the following:
Finally, you can optionally provide the plastered wall with a paint.
Tips
Seams and edges are weak points on wood and OSB boards where water can easily penetrate. Self-adhesive joint tapes are ideal for additional sealing.
