Plastering on the second coat after adding bits of dry pigment to darken the plaster. The final coat looks brown at first, but after it fully dries the plaster will become a warm tan-grey color.
(Note: 1 bucket KEIM plaster, 6 bottle caps of Quickrete liquid cement color “Charcoal”, 6 bottle caps of liquid cement color “Buff”, 2 bottle caps of bright green dry pigment, 1 whole bottle of “burnt umber” dry pigment)
