Artigiano Polline Decorative Plaster Collection
A beautiful finish, but not worth the long-term cost
summarizeEditor's Summary
I've been experimenting with decorative paints for over six years now, and this one's got a stunning finish. It's water-based, has no strong smell, and the aggregates are natural – we chose one with Sahara Desert sand. Working with it is a breeze, but the long-term cost adds up, and it's not something I'd recommend for the average DIYer. The coverage is excellent, but the paint itself is pricey, and shipping took ages.
