Product Name:   PROCEED™ Rough Irregular Texture

PROCEED Rough Irregular Texture creates old, chalky European surfaces with a crusty, natural texture of weathered stone or plaster.  It is an opaque acrylic mastic texture coating formulated with a crushable aggregate that is non-uniform in size, and requires minimal preparation to correct minor surface blemishes and drywall seams.  This product is one of a family of compatible textures that can be used alone or blended with others to achieve a wide range of surface appearance. 

PROCEED™ Textures are formulated with 100% acrylic polymers and are compatible with most waterborne products.  However, test mixes and sample boards should always be employed to ensure compatibility and performance.  DO NOT USE with solvent based materials.

PRODUCT APPLICATION:
PROCEED™ Rough Irregular Texture is a versatile medium that can create irregular surfaces that exhibit both smooth and rough characteristics, such as stucco and weatherworn plasters.  It produces a semi-absorbent surface that takes glaze well and makes an ideal antiqued painting ground for murals and ornamentation work.  Apply to a clean and dry substrate using a roller designed for thick materials or with a trowel.  PROCEED™ Textures do not require the application of a scratch coat for adhesion.  Apply at rate of 70 - 80 sq ft / gallon to conceal surface irregularities of the substrate or to cover holes and minor cracks.  Subsequent coats may be applied if desired.  PROCEED™ Textures may be thinned with water to adjust the application consistency.  Trowel or tool the texture to the desired appearance.  Due to the crushable aggregate, this product will take on a smoother finish the longer it is worked.  Minimal troweling will result in a rougher, more “peppery” finish.  As the material is worked to smoother and smoother finishes, it will darken slightly.  Let dry 12 - 24 hours before over coating with other PROCEED™ products.  Full hardness is developed in 2 - 4 weeks.

TINTING:
Tint with PROCEED™ Pigment Dispersions or PROCEED™ Slow-Drying Fluids if a weaker tint is desired, mixing thoroughly before use.  Do not add more than 10% dispersion or Slow-Drying Fluid in combination by volume.  Use of more than recommended percentage could cause a change in application characteristics or (in the case of dispersions) water sensitivity in the dried finish.  Always test tint ratio for desired color before use. 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Always use safe work practices.  Avoid ingestion, excessive skin contact, and inhalation of concentrated vapors and sanding dusts. Clean tools with soap and water.  Store between 50 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit.  DO NOT FREEZE.  If frozen repeatedly, the product may become unusable.
