Work wet on wet and divide the surface into logical sections.
Detailed answer
You can prevent visible joints by careful planning of the work. Divide the surface into logical sections and work wet on wet. If the material begins to set too quickly, lightly adjust the moisture with a spray bottle, but do not dilute the layer with water. If necessary, use a spray with water to control drying.
Common mistakes
- applying a thick layer instead of a thin coat to the grain
- sanding without thoroughly vacuuming the dust
- rushing between layers and not allowing adequate drying time
