Layer 1
Apply a small amount of Mixture B to your trowel and gently tap in. Use a light smooth sweeping motion, spread the Smooth Moves plaster over 90% of your surface area.
Allow the Dried Chives base color to remain showing through on some parts of your surface.
While wet, tap in some Mixture A plaster on top of the surface. This will allow Mixture A & B to blend. Do not over blend, try to keep some of the colors separate. Let dry
Layer 2
Apply Mixture B to cover approximately 50% of the surface. Tap in to create DNA and smooth over your surface, creating a thin layer. Let dry.
Once dry, use 400 grit sand paper to remove any debris or unwanted areas. This is a smooth plaster surface. Use a damp cloth to remove dust.
Layer 3
Tap in Mixture A and B separately. Use your trowel in a sweeping, multidirectional motion, to create a modeled effect.
Allow previous layers to show through your finished product. Let dry.
