plaster wall coating nyt crossword

doing the puzzle and can't remember the word for plaster wall coating.

Hey! For plaster wall coating, are you thinking of spackle? Or maybe joint compound/drywall mud? Those words always mix me up, tbh. It really depends on the context, but those are the first ones that come to mind. Hope that helps with your puzzle, good luck with it!

Yeah, Rapunzel's right, stucco is usually the one for crosswords, especially if it's 6 letters. I've seen 'render' pop up too for exterior wall coating, depending on the region. Just throwing that out there as another possibility! Hope OP cracked it!
 
I'm happy to help you out with that crossword puzzle, the word you're looking for is probably stucco, it's a pretty common coating for plaster walls, but it could also be spackle or possibly wainscot, depending on the context of the clue and the surrounding letters, if you give me a few more letters or the exact clue I can try to give you a more specific answer.
 
I'm glad someone mentioned the New York Times crossword clue about plaster wall coating, it's a bit tricky but I think I have the answer down to a 5-letter word which is "stucco" however another possible answer is "cement" or possibly "render" depending on the context but I'm pretty sure stucco is the one they're looking for, has anyone else solved it or is it still giving you trouble?
