Sharing all the details below on how to apply plaster to a range hood 🤍 •hood insert SKS Appliances: 36" (SKSHI3601S) •used 1/4 birch plywood for the box (kerf cut the sides to achieve a curved shape) •primed the plywood with PVA Drywall Primer (let dry 24 hrs) •once dry, painted one coat of Meoded Quartz Plaster Primer (let dry 24 hrs) •mixed Meoded Concretta FS Plaster powder with water (non-tinted) •used a metal hand trowel to layer the 1st coat of plaster (applied in smaller layers for a slightly uneven finish) •NOTE: apply it smoothly without harsh lines or bumps so it’s easier to smooth •once it started to harden, we took a damp sponge to slightly smooth any rougher areas (let dry 24hrs) •NOTE: for the 2nd coat of plaster, we mixed Meoded Concretta tint in the color “Calm White” into the Concretta powder with water (be sure to keep it a thicker consistency) •used a rubber hand trowel to spread the mixture with a softer look (left some uneven texture for added depth) •once it started to harden, took a slightly damp sponge to push the plaster flat on the edges and mold the final shape, pushed very lightly on the top and sides so it still kept some rougher texture •TIP: however it looks before it completely hardens is exactly the shape it will become- make sure to not leave any lumps •after it completely dried, we sealed it with 3 coats of Meoded Plaster-Guard sealer in the satin finish (it dries in more of a matte finish but is easily wipeable) LTKHome LTKstorytime
