Toscanna

1) What tools are needed in applying Toscanna?

Finishing trowel, spatula or roller can be used in applying Toscanna. Tools to be used depend on the design desired.

2) Can you make other designs other than the four presented designs (Rodillo, Plugged, Marmoreal, Fused)?

Yes. Other designs can be done.

3)  What sandpaper is used in sanding?

#400 or #600 can be used.

4) What to do when you want it to be smooth and glossy without adding any topcoat/sealer?

Burnish it using the trowel when it is starting to dry up. Be careful when burnishing because trowel might make scratches when not done correctly.

5) Is the water to powder ratio important?

Yes, it is best to maintain the recommended water to powder ratio of the Toscanna.  Every 5 kg bag requires 2.1L of water.  Changes in the water to powder ratio may affect working properties, physical properties, and possibly color as well.
