Using wall putty makes it easy to obtain the perfect paint finish. It provides a solid foundation for painting by providing an even, smooth surface for coloring. Whether you've just moved into a new house or plan to repaint your rooms, it will ensure that your new paint lasts longer to maintain that first day look throughout the year.
Technically speaking, wall putty is a fine powder made from white cement that is mixed with water and other additives to form a solution that is applied to the wall. If you use the solution correctly, it will fill cracks, imperfections and gaps in your walls, thus creating an even base for your paint. The smooth mixture of wall putty and water fits perfectly on any type of wall, creating a flawless finish on the interior or exterior of your home.

Typically, professional painters apply two coats of wall putty before painting any surface. The first coat fills in defects and the second coat ensures that the coated surface and the wall are in line with each other. You can use putties on drywall. They can also be easily applied to plastered walls as they are applied to concrete walls. Their versatility makes them the best choice for plastering any type of wall.
Most of the advantages of wall putty come from the fact that it is a cement-based material. Manufacturers have come up with specialised solutions with added polymers that improve wall putty’s overall traits. Some key advantages of wall putty are:
It improves the tensile strength of the wall.
Wall putty increases the lifespan of the wall paint.
It is resistant to moisture.
Wall putty provides a smoother finish.
Wall putty doesn’t flake or get easily damaged.
