Probable Cause Preventive Action Corrective Action Soft, White, Chalky Surface Basecoat over any . plaster base. Usually occurring during dry, hot weather. Too much ventilation has removed water from the plaster before it has set. Called “dry-out”. Screen openings to minimize drafts during dry, hot weather and spray the surfaces and floors with water during the setting period. Spray dried out areas with water or a solution of alum (1 lb. alum per 3 gallons of water). Soft, Dark, Damp Plaster Surface Basecoat over any . substrate. 1. DAMP WEATHER - too little ventilation during damp weather, water...
