Gold Bond® Uni-Kal® Veneer Plaster is a mill-mixed veneer finish plaster for smooth and textured trowel applications. It consists of specially ground, calcined gypsum, requiring only the addition of water. Texturing grade silica sand may be added for a textured finish.

A finish coat of Uni-Kal® Veneer Plaster may be used for interior smooth and textured trowel application over a gypsum plaster basecoat or as a one-coat application over gypsum plaster base.

Complies with ASTM C587.

Fire Resistance

Fire ratings equivalent to those of drywall systems can be obtained by applying the corresponding Kal-Kore type and thickness over the same framing member size and spacing with the same fasteners and 3/32" of Uni-Kal.

Advantages

  • Appearance and surface of conventional plaster at a lower cost than regular plastering.
  • High resistance to cracking, nail-popping, impact and abrasion failure.
  • Requires only one plastering material on the job.
  • Mill-mixed plaster components help assure uniform installation performance and finished job quality.
  • Rapid installation which reduces overall construction time.
