This will help in concealing the flaws on older plaster surfaces, if any. If, however, you are painting the plaster walls or sculpture without sealing/waterproofing, you can apply acrylic latex paint with a flat or matte finish. Remember, water-based paints will not work on your garden statue as you have already waterproofed the surface.
Apply Oil-based Enamel PaintĪfter sealing the surface, it’s time to apply oil-based enamel paint. Not only for garden statues, but you can use this coating even for POP used on basement walls and foundations.Īfter you have coated the Plaster of Paris garden statue with WaterBlock Masonry Waterproofer Paint, let the surface dry completely.Īfter the first coating is dried, check and apply a second coat if needed. IMO, WaterBlock will be easier and more effective as it penetrates through the surface pores deeply while providing a mildew-resistant long last coating.
You can pick either a WaterBlock or a marine-grade epoxy resin.
