What they say

Hide

if you wanted a flat look typically I would use like a six inch orbital and just power sanding really fast to buff it out but I forgot my senator and I'm just gonna do it by hand it's a small wall and then I'll take my burnishing tool to compress it and burnish it this right here this is a bow arrow Bercy tool missus really stiff and you're just going to take it just press put some pressure behind it and press and this actually just brings out a little bit more color out of the wall itself I'm just going to press and press and compress right there and then the wall will be all done so I'm going to move on to this process of sanding it looks very simple just looks like this so this is going to Sam and you can feel and this is a 2000 grit sandpaper and after I'm done polishing it with my sandpaper then I'm gonna just take and compress it once again there's just a here a random compression what I'm sange I can feel it you know the parts that aren't sanded it's just starts to feel like absolute glass this the sandpaper will just glide right over it you just keep buffing it if you want it smoother so I got my uh my polishing done with my sandpaper now my final step I'm just compressing it and doing a final polish with my Venetian crowd just a quick little trick you know to be able to tell if you've got a same polish just get us down and just look down this wall for any flat spots that just look like a mirror so the fun part is always you put it all together and seeing how amazing it looks with everything back in place you know this would be for me you know full-day project for this wall it has a little short wall right there that I did so you're talking typically you know right here I use the about a gallon there's enough to do some touch-ups you know with about a gallon of the product and about full daily work and fit god yeah well your pricing is really it's a matter of where you are if I was in doing this in New York happy twice as much probably three times as much as I am do it here and Boise Idaho so you know you you have to just keep that these are decorative coatings that are high in coatings that you really should be charged and you know the problem out of the money to do something like this for so there you have that the project is all complete now it absolutely looks amazing the three files that I use they use this time right here this Venetian plaster burnishing trout and bone marrow I also used this is the trial I used to trowel on the Venetian…
