Once your second layer has slightly dried, you should again smooth any imperfections. Do this by spraying water onto the surface and running the trowel across the wall using inward strokes. Like with the first coat, a wet brush can be used around the edges. Finish off by using a clean float to smooth the entire surface one last time. For best results, start from the bottom corner of the wall, working upwards and repeating the process until the wall is covered. Apply the second coat in the same way you applied the first.
