at our company, i make it standard for our finishers to do two coats with the nail spotter, and one spot touch-up coat by HAND.

i find it gets them accustomed to training their eyes for detail, versus blindly running a tool over nailing patters.

however, if its a smooth-wall / level 5 type finish, i do 3 coats with the nail spotter, and a 4th spot touch-up coat by hand....

i usually repeat the above process on walls and ceilings, regardless.


.....good question stilts.
