A dash texture finish is a rough stucco finish with small peaks of stucco sticking out. It can be sprayed on and can be applied light, medium or heavy in volume to create a unique look. This texture can be applied by hand (for smaller areas) or sprayed on (using a small hopper gun). Two to three coats are usually applied to achieve a uniform coat.
