What is Chalk Cola?

This is a question that those who work or want to work with plaster must know how to answer! After all, gypsum glue is part of the execution of the assembly of the plaster parts and, thus, it is practically impossible to carry out the finish without its use.

But what is gypsum glue? Gypsum glue is nothing more than an additive plaster, which when mixed with water, transforms into a glue that serves, as its name says, to glue parts and artifacts to plaster.

There are some homemade ways to make one piece stick to the other, for example, using the plaster's own mixture with water. But it's certainly not ideal and can cause a lot of problems. The best thing to do is to purchase a professional additive to avoid errors and guarantee a perfect finish, right?

Blok offers the best additive on the market, for you to add to the plaster yourself and thus obtain the plaster glue that you will need to carry out your work, joining the plaster pieces to each other. This additive is BlokGesso Cola, which has high performance, low cost, easy to use and high bonding power. How about knowing how this product can help your work? Meet BlokGesso Cola.

What is the difference between glue plaster and ordinary plaster?

Common gypsum is a mineral produced from the calcination of gypsum, a mineral that is very abundant in Brazil, especially in the Araripe region, and which is then reduced to powder, the one that we know and can easily find to buy in building material stores. By adding water to this plaster powder, you get the plaster that is ready to be used in any way you want!

To obtain gypsum glue, an additive is added to ordinary plaster so that it reaches the glue point when mixed with water. It's that simple! There is already glue plaster on the market ready to buy, which is nothing more than this mixture made previously and then, you just have to mix water to obtain the glue. However, it is best to purchase the additive separately from the plaster and make the mixture yourself, but why?

A Blok developed its own additive to be incorporated into plaster and thus manufacture gypsum glue when in contact with water, which has an immense advantage compared to the purchase of this ready-made product, since it provides greater performance and avoids waste of the material due to the exact application of the quantity that will be used. Just choose BlokGesso Cola.

What is gypsum glue used for?

The purpose of gluing plaster is not very secret, since its very name says that it is used to glue plaster pieces together, acting to fix frames, plaster blocks for partitions, plasterboard sheets for cladding, molding, panels, ceiling coverings and various repairs. It must be used whenever it is necessary to glue one or more plaster elements.

To exemplify, a more specific question that is very common to plasterers and people who work with plaster is: how to glue a plaster frame? And the best answer is: use glue plaster, which is the product that will give the best finish and quality to finish the job!

Glue plaster is stronger than ordinary plaster and, therefore, provides greater durability and safety during the application of the parts. So, you can't think of working with plaster without having plaster glue available to finish the finishes, okay?

What is the Drying Time of the Plaster glue?

Glue plaster has a longer drying time compared to normal plaster, that is, it takes a little longer to cure, providing additional time to work and handle the pieces, in addition to giving more alloy to adhere the pieces than normal plaster.

What are the advantages of using glue plaster?

Some plaster professionals choose not to use glue plaster, replacing it with regular plaster, but it is certainly an economy that is expensive. Do you know why?

As we said in the previous topic, glue plaster has a longer drying time, which increases the time for gluing and finishing the pieces, avoiding waste, and it gives more strength than ordinary plaster when attaching the pieces to each other. Thus, BlokGesso Cola can help you because it has high bonding power, making the finishing processes more effective, in addition to providing more time to finish the finishes.
