What are the functions of Wall Putty?

When it comes to renovating or repainting our homes, we always consider paint to be of utmost priority. The colour, the shade, the brand – we get super selective about giving the perfect makeover to the walls. But amidst all this, we tend to forget the most important ingredient that your walls actually desire to make your home look better and shine brighter.

Yes, we are talking about wall putty.

Although putty on the walls cannot be seen by the naked eyes, it still plays a crucial role in elevating the décor of our homes. So, what is it that putty brings to the walls? What are its functions and why it should move on top of the consideration list?

Here’s why:

The first and foremost application of putty is to even out the wall surface and provide a levelled base for further coating. In other words, putty application is the preliminary step in order to get long-lasting painting results.

Putty comes with high plasticity – similar to that of the texture of clay. This property provides a smooth base for the paint application and acts a perfect filler to cover the cracks and patches on the walls. Moreover, putty gives us the freedom to play with different paint colours, for it brings out the true tone of any colour.

So, if you’re one of those who doesn’t like to compromise on the shade, make sure your walls get the two-layer coating of the best putty.

There are different types of putty available in the market based on different purposes and requirements.

White Cement-based Putty: White Cement Putty, especially Birla White WallCare Putty, is the most popular type in the category. Made by a mix of white cement, mineral, and polymers, this putty is most preferred to give white coating as well as bright, smooth, and superior finish to indoor and outdoor walls.

The properties of WallCare Putty include:

Good binding property  
Resistance to dampness
Provides excellent finish to the paint
Suited for all types of paints

Acrylic Putty: This type of Putty, on the other hand, is made of white pigments, acrylic emulsion, and additives. They are most commonly used on interior surfaces. Although acrylic putty has many features like it’s ready to use, better alkali resistance, and suitable to all kind of paints, it’s far inferior to white-based cement in terms of binding property, water resistance, and strength.

So, if you’re are confused about which putty to go for, we’d recommend White Cement-based Putty.

Modern White Concrete Architectures Across the World
