Has anybody any tips on recreating the textured finish on the sills. I am using stonechip in a cartridge connected to an air compressor which looks ok but could do with being more textured. many thanks

Richard, I did the same as you air compressor and stone chip from the cartridge, this is what I ended up with.


The finish wasn't exact but I decided to go with it.

Hi Richard, no my nozzle was fixed, I did go to a paint specialist in Ilkeston I told them what I wanted to achieve...that was the best they could supply. I'm happy with the finish, I do think it's also down to how far you spray from the body bit of trial and error really.
