Long-term maintenance of tadelakt requires regularly re-sealing the surface with a soap solution in the case of qadad roofs, this was traditionally done every few years. lastly, an olive-oil soap solution is used to seal the plaster.it is mechanically polished using stones or abrasives harder than the plaster, providing a smooth, sometimes shiny, finish.before the plaster sets, a flat, smooth, hard stone is used to compress the plaster, then a plastic trowel used for the final polish.the plaster is applied in one thick coat with a wooden float, and smoothed with the same. ![]() plaster powder is mixed with water for 12 to 15 hours prior to the addition of pigment.In Morocco, the traditional application technique: Traditional application includes polishing with a river stone and treatment with oleic acid, in the form of olive oil soap, to lend it its final appearance and water resistance. Mixing plaster powder with water and yellow pigment to make tadelakt in Riad Dar Rita, Ouarzazate, Morocco They are familiar, in areas with calcium-rich ("hard") water, as deposits in bathtubs, sinks, and showers when soap is mixed with the water's dissolved calcium carbonate/lime, calcium soaps form.Ģ C 17H 35COO −Na + + Ca 2+ → (C 17H 35COO) 2Ca + 2 Na + Techniques Calcium soaps are insoluble in water, and fairly hard. The soap chemically reacts with the lime plaster, forming lime (calcium) soaps. natural soap (often "black" or olive oil soap) to speed carbonation of the surface and impart water-resistance.in some cases, marble or limestone sand (but not other aggregates).The basic constituents of tadelakt plaster are: ![]() Tadelakt is thought to have evolved from qadad, a similar plaster used in Yemen for millennia that is treated with calcium hydroxide and oils and fats instead of soaps.
