Low Maintenance: Formulated for minimal surface prep on any stable interior substrate.
How to Apply Moiré Metallic Plaster
Depending on your skill level, divide your project into manageable zones. Always mask adjacent walls, trim, and flooring before starting.
Method 1: Trowel & Spatula Application (For Maximum Depth)
-
First Coat: Apply a thin, full coat of Moiré using a cross-hatch pattern. Allow to set for 15 minutes.
-
Burnish/Texture: Apply a partial coat while keeping your trowel flat against the surface to build layers and reflectivity.
-
Second Coat: Once fully dry, repeat the process with a second thin coat to finalize the shimmering movement.
Method 2: Roller & Brush / Scraper (For Faster Application)
-
Roll Moiré evenly over the surface.
-
Immediately work the wet plaster using a brush or scraper blade to create your desired texture.
-
Note: Always maintain a wet edge while working to prevent visible seams.
Surface Preparation & Pro Tips
Avoid Failure: Inadequate surface preparation is the #1 cause of decorative finish failures.
To ensure maximum adhesion and color vibrancy, follow these prep steps:
-
Prime First: We strongly recommend priming surfaces with Sharktooth Primer, tinted to closely match your chosen Moiré color.
-
Test Adhesion: If applying over existing painted or questionable surfaces, perform a small test patch before tackling the entire wall.
