Intonachino

Intonaco (intonachino ) is an  Italian  terminology for the final, very thin coating of plaster upon which a fresco is usually painted. The lime plaster is actually decorated whilst still moist, in order to permit the pigment or colorant to enter into the intonaco itself. The previous layer in the processis is called  arriccio (brown coat ), is usually installed marginally coarser to supply a key with the intonaco, and should be permitted to dry out, generally for quite a few days, prior to the final, extremely thin layer of finish which is hand-applied and then decorated on.
In the Italian language the expression intonaco is likewise utilised considerably more commonly for regular plaster as well as mortar wall-coatings when it comes to architectural structures.
Intonaco (Intonachino )is customarily a combination of fine sand (with granular proportions lower than a couple of mm) along with a binding material, lime putty,much the same as the product we apply today
