What is the difference between Light Sand 13 and White Decorative Clay Plaster?
The only difference is their base color: one is light sand–colored, and the other is warm white. When tinted with the same color pigments, the shades are very similar.
The biggest difference is that Light Sand 13 dries more slowly during application and creates slightly more shading, which is why it has become the most popular mixture for finishing large wall and ceiling surfaces.
FEATURES
- Without chemicals that form a film;
- 100% vapor permeable;
- contains no volatile organic compounds;
- antistatic, therefore does not attract dust;
- the average pH value of white clay plaster is about 8,5 – such an environment is unfavorable for mold growth, but not too alkaline to corrode the skin, so it is safe to work with clay mixtures, can be touched by hand;
- clay plaster is non-combustible – fire class A1;
- for decorative clay plaster wall finishing, usually careful wall preparation up to the filling stage is sufficient.
COMPOSITION
A dry mixture of white clay, marble and cellulose. The components of the mixture are not harmful. Mixed with water.
CAN BE APPLIED ON:
Traditional/finishing clay plaster;
Gypsum/cement/lime plaster;
Gypsum plasterboards;
Gypsum fiberboards;
Cement, wood chip and other construction boards intended for plastering or filling;
Previously filled, conventionally painted surfaces;
Stoves, fireplaces plastered with traditional Mr. Clay clay plaster.
MIXTURE PREPARATION
In a container of no less than 35 L, pour 8 - 9 L of water, add the entire pigment if plastering with color and mix well using an electric mixer intended for this. While continuing to mix, slowly pour in the entire package of decorative clay plaster, mix well and, after covering the container, let the mixture soak for at least 30 min. The mixture may appear quite runny, but will thicken later. Before plastering work, mix the clay plaster once again. The color of the wet mixture is more intense than when dry.
USAGE TIME OF PREPARED MIXTURE
Keep the prepared clay mixture covered, in a cool room. It is recommended to use within 1–2 weeks.
APPLICATION OF PLASTER ON WALLS / TOOLS
Clay plaster can be applied to the wall with a trowel, a roller for applying filler or mechanically. Plastering is done using stainless steel trowels with a top handle or regular plastering tools. For surface treatment it is recommended to use tools according to the decorating technique – PVC floats, brushes, sponges, etc. The choice of tool can determine the final wall finish result.
PLASTERING THICKNESS
Decorative clay plaster is applied twice. Applied very thinly – the total thickness is 1–2 mm. During work avoid direct sunlight and draughts.
DRYING TIME
Depending on the ambient temperature, humidity and the size of the plastered area, drying may take from 4 to 24 h.

Frequently asked questions
Is it necessary to varnish clay plaster walls?
There is really no need to varnish clay plaster walls — it all depends on your lifestyle and your specific needs.
If you want completely natural and vapor-permeable walls, don’t use any varnish. Simply read our recommendations on how to clean and repair natural walls — trust us, they can stay beautiful and clean for many years.
If you need durable, wet-washable walls — for example, in high-traffic areas or commercial spaces — be sure to varnish the surfaces with Mr. Clay Varnish No. 1.

What is the difference between Light Sand 13 and White Decorative Clay Plaster?
They differ in their base colors: one is light sand–colored, and the other is warm white. When tinted with the same pigments, the resulting shades are very similar. The biggest difference is that Light Sand 13 dries more slowly during application and creates slightly more shading, which is why it is currently the most popular mixture for finishing large wall and ceiling areas.
White decorative clay plaster is an excellent choice if you need a white base, softer shading, or if you’ll be doing highly compressed decorative techniques. But in most cases, both mixtures can be used for almost any technique.
Does clay plaster crumble?
Clay plaster “breathes” — it absorbs and releases moisture, which makes it very beneficial for maintaining a healthy indoor microclimate. If the surface is not varnished, it remains slightly more sensitive to mechanical impact, but it does not crumble or smear. An occasional loose marble grain falling off is completely normal for a natural product.
If the surface feels noticeably dusty or smudgy when touched, it means something was not done quite correctly during the finishing process. In that case, you can try a few additional steps: brush off the loose marble grains with a dry brush or clean palm, or thoroughly moisten the wall and compress the entire surface using a stainless-steel trowel to harden it.
Of course, you can always varnish the wall to fully stabilize the clay plaster if vapor-permeability is not essential for your wall finish.
Can you plaster all walls and ceilings with clay plaster?
Yes, most people choose to finish all the walls and ceilings in their home with clay plaster. The result is incredibly beautiful and cozy! The walls create soft, warm shading — just enough to add charm, but not so much that it becomes overwhelming. You’ll never get tired of it. On the contrary — as our clients say, you’ll want to come home just because of your walls and won’t be able to look at flat-painted ones anymore! :)
Can clay plaster be used in the bathroom/shower?
You cannot use clay plaster or this varnish in the shower area, near the bathtub, or in any zone with frequent direct water contact and high steam concentration. These areas are not suitable for clay plaster or its varnish.
In the bathroom in general:
For other walls, ceilings, or areas near freestanding bathtubs or sinks — where there is no long-standing water and no intense hot steam — clay plaster can be used. In bathrooms, we recommend varnishing clay-plastered walls for practicality. If you know you will be careful and protect the surface, varnishing is not strictly necessary.
Ceilings do not need to be varnished.
Natural Clay Plaster Maintenance
Because clay mixtures are natural and contain no chemical substances that form a film, clay plaster remains vapor-permeable and “breathable.”
Such walls should not be heavily scrubbed with water, as the cleaned area will definitely remain visible. However, we have discovered some very effective methods for cleaning clay plaster, and considering that it is a fully natural, matte, and very beautiful material, its durability and usability are quite good — in many cases comparable to matte paints.

If you are looking for more durable wall surfaces, clay plaster can be varnished with Varnish No. 1, making the walls wet-wipeable.
