Liquid Metal Decorative Plaster: A Luxurious Finish with Real Metal Beauty

If you’re looking for a wall finish that’s bold, durable, and truly unique, Liquid Metal Decorative Plaster from 5 Star Finishes delivers. This innovative product combines the artistry of Venetian plaster with the authenticity of real metal powders, creating a finish that looks, feels, and reacts just like sheets of steel, copper, iron, or brass. 

Available in 1kg, 5kg, and 15kg sizes and in nine metallic shades including brass, bronze, copper, iron, and nickel, it’s the ultimate choice for designers and homeowners in Canada and the US who want to transform interior spaces with a high-end, modern look.

Why Choose Liquid Metal Decorative Plaster?

Unlike paint or imitation finishes, Liquid Metal Plaster uses genuine metal powders. This means it can receive stains, patinas, and oxidations, aging beautifully and developing character just like solid metal. When applied, it not only looks like real metal — it reacts like it too.

What makes this product revolutionary is its proprietary binder technology. Traditional metal coatings often require endless sanding to achieve a reflective finish, but with our water-based burnishing binder, Liquid Metal Plaster can be polished to a glass-like shine using a Venetian plaster trowel. This can save hundreds of hours on large projects while delivering better results with less effort.

Where to Use It

Liquid Metal Decorative Plaster is designed for interior walls and surfaces that need a dramatic, elegant statement. It’s not recommended for floors or countertops due to durability requirements, although future innovations may make certain metals suitable for microcement shower topcoats.

It’s perfect for:

  • Feature walls in residential or commercial interiors

  • Accent panels in living rooms, restaurants, or lobbies

  • Decorative installations where the richness of real metal makes an impact

Important Notes

  • Avoid using zinc or tin on warm surfaces like fireplaces, as these metals have a low burning temperature.

  • Aluminum is not offered due to chemical instability and poor long-term performance.

  • Liquid Metal is sold as a two-component kit: one with the metal powder plus binders, polishing compounds, and rheology agents, and the second with the liquid binder. Simply mix and adjust with water to achieve the consistency you prefer.
