Lucidato Polished Plaster
Lucidato Polished Plaster — High-Gloss Luxury Finish
Lucidato is the polished plaster finish you choose when you want serious shine. Made from aged slaked lime and fine marble powders, it delivers a deep, reflective lustre that catches the light beautifully. It's the Italian-style high-gloss finish that interior designers and experienced plasterers turn to when they want to create something special.
What Makes Lucidato Different?
Unlike matte or satin finishes, Lucidato is all about that mirror-like polish. The aged lime and marble powder combination creates a surface that can be burnished to an exceptional sheen — the kind of finish that adds depth and drama to feature walls, columns, and statement spaces. It's not the easiest finish to master, but when it's done right, nothing else comes close.
Where Lucidato Works Best
This is a finish for spaces where you want to make an impact. Feature walls in living rooms, luxury bathrooms, hotel lobbies, high-end retail — anywhere you want that polished marble effect without the weight and cost of actual marble. It works particularly well in spaces with good lighting, where the reflective surface can really show off its depth.
Application & Technique
Lucidato requires proper preparation and technique. You'll need a good primer base, multiple thin coats, and the skill to burnish it properly for that signature gloss. It's a finish that rewards patience and experience. If you're new to polished plaster, we'd recommend starting with Marmorino or getting some practice in first.
