Why use it?
The traditional way of plastering is by cement plastering and then coating it with Plaster of Paris. Gypsum plastering is the modern way of doing the walls. It requires quiet less time to dry-about 3 days and then the wall is ready for painting work, unlike cement plastering where it takes about a month for the entire process to get completed. Also, cement plastering tends to leave shrinkage cracks on the walls after drying up due to the high heat of hydration and faulty curing. Gypsum plaster eliminates this problem as well. Gypsum plastering does not require much water or sand or electricity and therefore is the environment-friendly way of construction.
