Hello!
I would like to ask if any of you have ever created a plaster wall with a concrete-look finish yourselves. There are instructions showing how to apply thick sheets of plastic, cut to size, onto fresh plaster with the edges touching. After a short time, the sheets are removed again to achieve the visual effect of the wall being made up of individual concrete segments.
I’m wondering if this is something one can manage on their own? As is often the case, I have more time than money...

How is that supposed to work? The concrete surface needs to have tactile imperfections Just search for it online. It looks really impressive—just like a concrete wall. It can also be used for tables, showers, or floors.
You’ll only get the formwork look with real concrete walls (usually using large formwork panels). I’ve come across this with many clients.
The only downside: it’s quite expensive.
Providers include, for example, Carameo, Beton Cire, Stucco, Alpina, Bito, Terrastone, and many more.

...Is it something you can do on your own? I have more time than money, after all...We looked into it thoroughly but ended up choosing slate instead of concrete. There are ultra-thin concrete surfaces with different textures (e.g., wood formwork and others), applied similarly to wallpaper, but they weigh about 2 kg per square meter (4.4 lbs per square foot) (real concrete). It’s possible to do it yourself and reasonably affordable. If you’re interested, I can send you the link via private message.

I would love to learn more about that, Traumfaenger!
By the way, you can achieve the formwork look without actual formwork... simply by using these films, which give the plaster a smooth yet textured surface while it is still wet, comparable to the finish of real formwork.
As I said... I would like to include a link, but I have already been warned here for doing that.
