How to use

- Start by stirring the Polycell SmoothOver to a creamy consistency. Then load the Polycell SmartSmoother with product. It's best to work with approximately 2cm depth across the full width of the blade
- Apply the Polycell SmoothOver to the ceiling, working away from the edges and focusing on a small area at a time. Test a small area first.
- Reload the SmartSmoother as needed to ensure sufficient product is applied to cover the highest texture peaks.
- Don't worry about small irregularities or tramlines as these can be removed by light sanding when the product is dry. Apply a second coat if required.
