The basics are a trowel, rollers, abrasives, vacuum cleaner, mixer, tape, and protective equipment.
Detailed answer
The basic equipment includes a trowel, rollers, abrasives, vacuum cleaner, mixer, tape, and protective equipment. We recommend a trowel with a softer blade, typically around 25–30 cm. For light shades, a plastic trowel is safer as it reduces the risk of dark marks from metal. The recommended trowel size is universally 25 to 30 cm. When applying light-coloured coatings, we recommend using a plastic trowel.
Common mistakes
- applying a thick layer instead of a thin smoothing to the grain
- sanding without thoroughly vacuuming the dust
- rushing between layers and not allowing sufficient drying time
