Need Help With My Faux Bro"

I used to do plaster coat finishs for the rich and famous. Noe i,m trying to figure a way to offer it to everybody else. Problem is i need a way to Put in my random accent colors after its base coated alot quicker. My texture looks like stone or slate and i just want two colors randomly applied to bring out the depth and beauty. Don,t want to wash the whole surface twice, just want to accent here and there in the crevases like in real stone. Its gotta be quick so i can afford to offer it. Been experimenting, but i,m stumped. Help thanks

What will help is changing product. Using a different texture material will allow you to easily accomplish your design and bring it in at better price points. Get to a quality faux finish supplier and get their recommendations on a number of products to use. Try www.fauxbykathy.com
