Application

– A thin base coat applied consistently across entire surface, low angle on the trowel to apply, high angle to scrap, allow to dry

– Very lightly, with a small amount of plaster on a clean trowel, skip across surface creating  sporadic open spaces adding the appearance of texture to the surface, allow to dry

– Apply another thin coat similar to the first, allow to dry

Polishing

– Immediately following drying time sand the surface in a circular motion with about a 400 grit sand paper, remove excess dust with a clean rag

– Sand again in a circular motion with a lighter grit sand paper, wipe off excess dust

– Use a clean trowel to press the stucco down making it stronger and durable while bringing out a sheen to the surface
