   I did a basement utility wall using Thorseal and a masonry brush.
   Slopped it on mixing one bag at a time.
   Super Hawg and a large mixing paddle makes easy work of mixing the stuff quickly.
   Trowel would have worked, I guess, but the stuff is fairly runny.

   Will this be for aesthetics?  We specced out a product for a project a couple of years ago as a substitution for parging.  The building was an existing one-story convenience store where the exterior was a mix of concrete block and brick.  It was in bad shape and needed something to give it a monolithic look.  A manufacturer called Total Wall had a new product that sounded promising.  It was an acrylic elastomeric product that could be tinted and put over masonry, with a variety of textures.  Unfortunately, the owner still hasn't done anything so I can't vouch for how it works.  And I'm not sure whether it needed to be applied with a trowel or not.  Their technical department was very informative though.

   Phone number/email is 1-888-702-9915 or http://www.totalwall.com for more information.
