Textured High Build Paint How to Apply

1. Open your 10L bucket and stir will a clean stick or paint stirrer.
2. Pour a desired amount into a paint tray or a larger paint scuttle.
3. The roller we use to apply textured high build is a honeycomb/textured roller sleeve, you can get throw away ones, which are good enough for light use, but for larger areas we’d recommend choosing a professional 9” honeycomb sleeve and good roller frame/handle.
4. With very slow even strokes, lay onto wall in heavy patches. Do not worry about the texture/peaks at this point in time.
   
5. When the initial quantity of product is on the wall, slowly and evenly spread out to cover a larger area. Smaller 1m2 areas at a time are easier to manage.
6. The texture can now be achieved by further rolling and jointing of areas using a diagonal action. The texture is achieved by laying off.
7. To layoff it is recommended that you have a separate standard medium pile roller sleeve, as this will give you more control over your desired textured finish.
8. High textured peaks: finish/layoff on the up stroke, in order to push the marble aggregate into vertical position, and to achieve a high peak. This will ensure that the texture will have a ‘peaked’ effect when dry.
9. Lower textured peaks: finish/layoff on the down stroke, in order to push the marble aggregate into position, and achieve a lower peak.
10. Many finishes are achievable as this coating can be applied by trowel for  a more smoother masonry looking finish.
11. Textured Sprayer for the professionals can also offer a smooth masonry finish.
12. Window reveals can be rolled as close as possible and then finished with a brush in order to give a professional flat border finish.

Using the above methods large areas can be covered quickly with an even professional finish.
