Arena™ Application Instructions

Step 1: First Coat of Arena™


After priming the substrate with VariPrime™, apply the first coat of
Arena™ to an area of about 4 square feet.





This first coat should be a thin, even coat. Apply using random,
decorative trowel strokes.




Step 2: Texture Coat


While the first coat is still wet, apply a texture coat of Arena™.





Finished texture coat.




Step 3: Colorwash


Distress a sponge float by tearing the edges. This will prevent leaving
linear float impressions during use.





While texture coat is still wet, lightly mist VariStain™ onto the surface.




Use the distressed float to press the VariStain™ into the finish and
remove any spots or drips.




Finished Arena™.
