Noble grey - a powerfull, urban style: Create a wall in the "Black Slate" look.
A great way to accentuate exposed walls or pillars.
1st application: A mixture of
2nd application: A mixture of
1. application:
Apply the mixture of the Decorative clay plaster and the Full-shade tinting color very profoundly; use a roll or a smoothing trowel.
Apply approx. 1-2 m² first (consumption approx 750-1000 ml per m²).
Afterwards, smooth out the surface with a spatula or a plastic trowel. Use a narrow edge of the trowel to draw slightly wavy, partly also deliberately broken lines.
You might need to try first and if needed, hold the trowel slightly slanted. As the metarial dries slowly, the pattern can be smoothened out and tried again.
Gently smooth out the edges and bulges if too sharp, until the desired structure is achieved.
The structure can be smoother or rougher, according to your personal taste.
The edges have a "vivid" appeariance while wet. They will "fall" during the drying process (24-48 hours) and get less visible.
Slightly smoothen too sharp edges and too high areas with sanding paper (150 grit), but do not even them out completely.
2. application:
Prepare the mixture of the Full-shade tinting color and the Wallpaper paste. Apply it thinly by a roll or a trowel (consumption approx. 100 ml per m²). Do not apply more than 1 m² first.
Afterwards, swiftly take off the applied paint by means of a trowel; work with sharp moves towards the grain. Remove the excess material from the trowel. The dark tone of the 2nd application remains in the deeper areas.
Color variations
The look can be achieved in various colors:
