From Vision to Reality
We follow a meticulous, artisanal 6-step process to ensure a flawless, velvety plaster finish for your Los Angeles home:
Step 1
We start by discussing your vision. Whether you need help choosing a specific Portola Paints Roman Clay color or deciding between Roman Clay vs Limewash, our experts guide you to the perfect finish that complements your interior lighting and decor.
Step 2
We arrange the project to fit your schedule. Since plaster work involves sanding, we take extra care to mask off floors, furniture, and fixtures, ensuring your home remains clean and protected throughout the Roman Clay application process.
Step 3
Roman Clay walls require a perfectly smooth canvas (Level 5 finish). If you have existing orange peel or knockdown texture, we perform a full skim coat and sanding. This critical step ensures that applying Roman Clay paint on textured walls results in a flat, stone-like surface without imperfections.
Step 4
We apply a high-quality, special primer designed to bond with decorative plasters. This creates a uniform substrate that prevents "flashing" (uneven sheen) and ensures the Roman Clay wall finish adheres durably to the drywall.
Step 5
This is where true craftsmanship shines. Our artisans apply the Roman Clay in multiple thin layers using a putty knife or trowel. We manipulate the material by hand to create the signature "cloudy" movement, depth, and organic texture that defines a premium Roman Clay finish.
Step 6
Unlike some paints, Roman Clay can be sealed for extra durability. We apply a protective topcoat (if requested) to guard against scuffs. Finally, we conduct a walkthrough to ensure your new Roman Clay accent wall meets our strict quality standards before cleanup.

The main difference lies in texture and application. Limewash is a mineral-based paint applied with a brush, resulting in a matte, chalky finish with soft brushstrokes. Roman Clay, on the other hand, is a plaster finish applied with a putty knife or trowel. It creates a smooth, hard surface that feels velvety to the touch and mimics the look of natural stone or marble. If you prefer a “cloudy” but smooth aesthetic, Roman Clay is the better choice
Yes! A key part of successful rental staging is ensuring walls are in excellent condition before applying paint. Our team includes detailed surface prep as part of every service:
This ensures a flawless, long-lasting result that looks professionally done — helping your property command higher rent and attract quality tenants faster.
Yes, once cured, Roman Clay creates a hard, stone-like shell. However, like natural stone, it can be susceptible to scratches or water spots if left unsealed. For high-traffic areas (like hallways or kitchens) or bathrooms, we recommend applying a specialized sealer. This protective layer makes the Roman Clay wall finish wipeable and more resistant to daily wear and tear without altering its beautiful matte appearance.
A limewash finish typically lasts 5-10 years indoors and 3-7 years outdoors, depending on environmental factors and maintenance. Touch-ups are simple and blend seamlessly, extending the life of the finish without needing a full repaint.
