Email #67 - Blue Gets Plastered

I've not reported much about the first floor classroom in the NW corner of building, except for that Big Salamander in the ceiling, which is still visible in the top photo. However, last week when I walked in, I was quite thrilled to see that they had painted the shotcrete walls blue! What a NICE COLOR for finish, I thought. Much better than the institutional non-colors of typical classroom walls.

Then this week I was disappointed to learn that the blue is just a primer paint in preparation for plaster, as shown in the lower right photo of the NW corner where the north wall has already been plastered.

Personally I think they should apply another coat of blue primer on top of the plaster.
