What is the composition or ingredients of your clay plasters?Īmerican Clay is a blend of post-industrial sand aggregates, clays and pigments. The product is derived from natural sources, is zero-VOC, and is made of a proprietary blend of sand aggregates and clays sourced entirely from the United States. It is applied to many different surfaces like paint (including drywall, painted surfaces, etc.). The material comes in dry sacks to be mixed with water on site, not in liquid gallon cans like most paint products do. The average cost of the material can range from $1.35 to $2.00 per square foot depending on color and finish choices (costs do not include labor, which vary project to project based on many factors specific to each job). It can be compared to Venetian plaster and other veneer plaster type applications. It is applied with a hawk and trowel, not a paint brush or paint roller.
