To achieve a skip trowel texture, you can apply a thin joint
compound in random arches across the entire wall or ceiling.
Going for a textured look when plastering is an ideal way of

A skip trowel texture is something that can be completed by
DIYers as well as plastering professionals - you just need to make sure your
surfaces are free from any dust or residue and also use a good
primer on the wall. Priming before applying texture helps to promote even
drying and limit the shrinkage of the drywall mud.
The most popular texture trowels are often made from PVC as
this allows maximum flexibility - making the job easier. Our Nela
PVC Texture Trowel - Chamfered Edge is available with a 1mm or 2mm edge –
the chamfered edges allow a reduction in trowel lines when finishing thin coat
renders.
