As far as HAVING to cover the foam with plster, As long as you are useing Laxet paint or a glue like Elmers or Matt Medium (Craft Type glues) it is not nessesary to Plaster it. If you are going to put in a pond using Enviro-tech, use CA glues, or any type of Epoxy for gluing to the base which is foam, then yes it is nessesary to cover the foam with plaster to protect it. These glues will eat right through the foam. Stay with Water and Acrylic based scenery products and you should not have any problems....Jamie
