Trowel Application
Use a stainless steel or plastic trowel designed to apply decorative plasters. Due to the crushable aggregate, this product will take on a smoother finish with a darker cast the longer it is worked. Minimal troweling will result in a more “peppery” look. A Stainless Steel trowel will aggressively crush the aggregate resulting in a darker finish, with the look of polished stone. The final layer may be
troweled when setting for a smooth finish. Use a light water spray to lubricate the blade while smoothing.

Brush and Roller Application
Thin Weathered Granite with water up to 50% to increase workability.

Tools

Trowel: Use a Stainless Steel or Plastic Trowel specifically designed for applying decorative plasters.
