How can I achieve a different look using Stone?
By using a contrasting color of Satin as an undercoat with a light layer of Stone over the top.
By spraying extra coats of Stone Touch onto your product. This will build up the layers of Stone.
For a different look try using a contrasting color as an undercoat - this color will show through if a light coat of Stone is applied. Try a bright pink under Alabaster or a green under Canyon Rock!
A primer coat is not necessary, but some items benefit from a primer because of their porous surfaces. Keep in mind, if your object to be painted is large begin first with a multi-purpose spray paint in a comparable shade to the Stone Touch Basecoat to cover the surface. Then apply the Stone Touch for texture and interest as opposed to coverage.
Stone needs to be applied evenly over the entire surface. Shake the can at one minute intervals to maintain the color consistency and remember that several light coats are preferable to one heavy coat.
Stone is not a standard spray paint. The average coverage for a can is as little as 5 square feet to as much as 20 square feet, depending on the background color and the amount of textured effect you desire. The closer the background color is to the Stone color, the greater the coverage per can.
