How to do:

1: For a tin of ø10 cm and a height of 12 cm you need 300 gr. 'Beton zum Kneten'.
2: Cut a plastic textured mat ( anti-slip mat, stencil but also a stamp) to the size of the tin can. 
3: Mix the concrete for kneading (see „General Information“) and roll out flat to a thickness of approx. 7 mm.
4: Cover the empty tin can with concrete. It is recommended to work with sections until the can is completely surrounded. Gently press on the concrete. 
5: Smooth the concrete cover with your hands and smooth out any seams.
6: Press the structured mat (or a stencil/stamp) into the concrete while it is still moist.
7: ... and immediately remove it again. 8. If the concrete decoration seems to strong, just add Keramik Effekt on top of all.

Have fun!
