An additive for mud that makes it sandless #mud

What happens here

After the misting and troweling, the surface should be smooth and prepared for sanding. Gently touch the newly smoothed drywall surface to confirm its texture. The presenter suggests that this process eliminates the need for extensive "touch-ups" and results in a surface that is already "sanded" smooth. If an even finer, more polished finish is desired, allow the current application to dry completely. Once dry, you can repeat the entire misting and troweling process to further refine the surface texture. This iterative process allows for achieving extremely high levels of smoothness, potentially mimicking a "Venetian mode" as mentioned by the presenter.

Goal: Verify the smoothness of the finished drywall and determine if further passes are required for a super-smooth texture.

What they say

So I don't have to make all the dust. If you want it to come here lightly, feel that? It's smooth. Alright, alright. Now if I'm on it smoother, I just want it dry. Dry trolley here, and I can get it like glass.
