Step 2: Tint & Mix Mud (Joint Compound)

I used a small can of latex paint to tint my joint compound. Just a little paint will color lot's of mud.

No need to thin the mud down,scoop it right out of the bucket. I used a small piece of scrap sheetrockas a mixing board. You can mix it up really good or just a little. Just experiment until you get a color you like.

Step 3: Apply Texture

I used a 3' putty knife. You can use anything. (Sponge, knife, paint brush, finger)
