My name is Shannon Kniep on behalf of expert village. And so you want to make sure that
you do this process of sanding and re-coating at least three times it sometimes requires
up to four depending on how much variation you have in your planks on your ceiling but
if you do that process and do like I showed you, you're going to get a flat plane and
you do it right and you're not even going to see it once you go back in to texture it.
Now one final word on texture. There's different ways that you can match texture that's already
on. It can be tricky but in a situation like this you're going to use a tool. It might
be a crow?s foot, might be something else maybe just any kind of a brush that you're
going to go on and try and match that texture on this once it is completely flat. Now that
tool, what you're going to do is you're going to mix your compound just like you did before
where you've got your compound in your bucket you take it out and put it in a tray but you're
going to put some water in it so it's a little soupier so it runs a little bit more than
it would be say for just filling in the joists, and that's going to give you a little runnier
mixture but when you dip your brush into it and you go to match, or a sponge a sponge
can work really well sometimes, when you go to put it on there, it's going to get sort
of that a little but runny drippy effect kind of like what you have on here now. I'm Shannon
Kniep with Expert Village, thank you.
