FAQs:
What is VITCAS Heat Resistant Plaster used for?

It is designed for finishing walls and surfaces around fireplaces, chimney breasts, wood-burning stoves, multi-fuel stoves, and other heating appliances exposed to elevated temperatures.

How much heat can VITCAS Heat Resistant Plaster withstand?

The plaster is formulated to withstand temperatures of up to 650°C, making it suitable for areas surrounding heating appliances.

Can I use this instead of standard plaster around a stove?

Yes. Unlike standard gypsum plaster, VITCAS Heat Resistant Plaster is specifically designed to resist heat exposure and reduce the risk of cracking around fireplaces and stoves.

Can VITCAS Heat Resistant Plaster be painted?

Yes. Once the plaster has fully cured and dried, it can be decorated with a suitable breathable paint or finish appropriate for the installation.
