Blueboard drywall and veneer plaster offer

3 advantages over ordinary drywall:

QUALITY, CONVENIENCE, and DURABILITY

Veneer plaster is much harder than a regular drywall surface, making it less likely to get unsightly dents and scratches. The top surface of plaster veneer is continuous over the whole wall, so joints almost never show and certainly never leap out at the eye like drywall joints commonly do. Veneer plaster’s continuous surface is also a better base for paint, though painting is not required. On a drywall surface, paint can dry differently on the paper surface than on the joint compound base at drywall seams. Even the most skillfully made drywall joints may show up in certain lights. Veneer plaster is much less likely to display any sort of visible shading difference.
