What rock is in plaster?
In lime based plaster, typically used to create beautiful interior polished plaster walls, or to create those gorgeous exterior walls seen throughout Europe, and higher end homes in North America, Limestone is the rock found in plaster. Limestone is created over millenia from fossilized sea shells. To create the plaster, the limestone is burned at very high temperatures and then slaked with water for anywhere from six months to ten years. The longer the slaking period, the better the quality of the "grassello" or lime putty produced. This lime putty is then mixed with marble flour to produce lime plaster.

Traditional plaster is made of hydrated lime, sand, water, and horse hair (or some other type of hair) added for tensile strength. When mixed, traditional plaster has the consistency of runny peanut butter. As plaster sets, the lime within the plaster mix absorbs Carbon Dioxide and is essentially converted back into limestone, resulting in a hard and durable material. Plaster is usually applied in three coats: the scratch coat, brown coat, and finish coat, and is rather labor intensive.
