How to do it
Consolidate and even out the surface
A firm base with even absorbency is essential for the following layers to adhere well.
- Penetrating primer consolidates porous surfaces: plaster, gypsum, drywall, concrete and brick
- Sealing primer forms a barrier between the layers and improves adhesion
- Primer paint, white or black, reduces the absorbency of the wall, so less paint is needed
Model the relief
The materials are applied with a brush, roller or trowel and, while still wet, can be shaped or patterned through a stencil.
- Textured primer creates the base texture: white in two grain sizes, or black
- Concrete effect putty turns grey under firmer trowel pressure for a loft look
- Textured plaster for rustic surfaces; it can be applied in thicker layers and sanded
- Crackle effect paste always goes on its own primer; the cracks form within 2 to 3 hours
Give the wall colour
A creamy, drip-free paint with a satin finish. It covers well with just one coat; a second coat gives a deeper shade.
- 23 shades that blend well on the wall and can be used for shading
- Apply with a roller, brush or sponge; next coat after 2 to 3 hours
- Once dry, the surface can be cleaned with a damp cloth
- Pigment paste in 5 colours tints primers, putty and plasters
Highlight the relief and add sheen
The gel glaze is applied with a brush, sponge or roller. While wet, it can be wiped off and blended with other shades.
- Coloured glazes for background tones, antique for patina, metallic for a metal sheen
- Combines with other glazes and with wall paints
- Once dry, the surface is water-repellent
- Coverage 50 to 100 ml per m²

Powders and glue for special effects
From chemists to the living room wall
Wall Decor is made by a family company from Budapest, founded by chemists more than 30 years ago. It develops and manufactures paints, adhesives and effect materials and works with more than 2,000 formulas in its modern laboratory.
- Brocante effect powder mixed 1:1 with decorative glue creates a sandy, stone-like or sparkling surface.
- Magnesium powder added to the final coat of paint creates a weathered, flaking look, on furniture too.
- Textured primers and effect materials also come in larger sizes, up to 10 l.
- The materials are designed for both walls and furniture.
Frequently asked questions
How do you create a concrete effect on a wall?
With concrete effect putty. It is applied with a trowel and, under firmer pressure from the tool, turns grey and takes on the look of concrete. The effect shows best on a surface that is not perfectly smooth. The putty can be tinted with pigment paste, but the grey effect only shows with light shades.
How do you create a crackled surface?
First apply the crackle primer with a brush or roller and let it dry completely, until it is clear and glossy. Then apply the paste with a trowel or palette knife. The cracks form as it dries, within 2 to 3 hours, and the thicker the layer, the more pronounced the cracks.
What is the difference between wall paint and wall glaze?
Wall paint is creamy and opaque with a satin finish. Glaze is a gel that can be wiped off and blended, and it brings out patterns. The two can be combined, for example paint as the base with a metallic or antique glaze on top.
Does the wall need preparing before decorating?
Yes. Loose plaster and dust must be removed from the surface. Penetrating primer consolidates porous, absorbent surfaces, and primer paint reduces the absorbency of the wall.
How much material do I need?
You need 100 to 150 ml of wall paint per m², 50 to 100 ml of glaze per m², and 0.6 to 0.7 l of concrete effect putty or textured plaster per m². Actual consumption depends on the absorbency of the surface and the thickness of the layer.
