Work with Venetian plaster can be performed independently, but at the same time you need to follow some rules and recommendations that should help perform the work efficiently and in a short time.

1. Before starting work, you need to make sure that the surface is perfectly flat and has no other defects. To improve the result of the work, the surface is overloaded with a special solution for Venetian plaster.
2. When working, the solution must be evenly distributed along the edge of the spatula using a knife or smaller spatula.
3. The first layer should be about 1 millimeter thick and the effect of translucent is created.
4. If you are a beginner in this area, working with a spatula, you need to work with a small spatula. For repair, you will certainly need a felted shoes in bulk, you can buy it on the market.
5. As a rule, to achieve the necessary result, about three layers are applied. In this case, each layer is applied after the previous one has completely dried (about 3 hours is necessary for complete drying).
6. After the previous layer dries, it is necessary to inspect the surface for the presence of irregularities, which are eliminated exclusively by a spatula (the use of sandpaper is strictly prohibited, since dust appears when using the skin, and the technology of Venetian plaster prohibits this).
7. To eliminate the appearance of scratches, periodically, you need to wash the spatula.
Compliance with these recommendations will achieve the perfect result.
