What happens here

After applying the first spray coat and allowing it to dry for about 30 minutes, the presenter encounters issues with the spray cans (difficulty achieving a smooth finish) and decides to switch to brush application for the second coat. Pour the liquid paint, also included in the Homax ToughTile kit, into a small bucket. Using a 3-inch flat bristle brush, rapidly apply the second coat of paint. It is crucial to work very quickly and continuously, as this type of paint dries extremely fast, often within a couple of minutes. This rapid drying requires efficient application to avoid brush marks and ensure a smooth, even finish. Systematically cover all surfaces of the shower, making sure to achieve thorough coverage. Continue wearing your respirator mask throughout this process for safety due to the paint's fumes.

Goal: Achieve a smooth, fully covered finish for the final coat.

What they say

Hide

and um I've never actually tried using a spray can something like this before and I've already gone through two spray cans and I've got probably the first coat on here, but I've been having a lot of problems with the spray cans actually um spraying out and getting a smooth finish on it. So, they do actually have a product in a quart that you can actually brush on, too. So, my actual second coat, I'm actually go and I'm going to brush this coat on instead of attempting to spray uh my second coat on cuz I'm just not liking the finish that's coming out with it. I'm just going to be using a flat bristle brush is a 3-in brush to brush this. And you got to brush this on stuff on really fast cuz it actually dries just within a couple minutes. So, I'm waiting for my first coat to dry. Just got a few more minutes and then I'm start brushing on this coat. [Music]
