Roller & Back-Trowel: Using a microfiber, mini roller in corners and edges and a 9” microfiber roller in the large areas, apply the Boero Metallic Suede in random rolled directions (up, down and diagonally, creating random “curving X’s”). Immediately “Back-Trowel” using a Boero Stainless-Steel Flex Trowel to create the random pattern. You may also leave the roller texture to create a Random Rolled Pattern.
