What are the best techniques for applying thick white paint to achieve a smooth and even finish?

To achieve a smooth and even finish when applying thick white paint, it is important to use high-quality paint and brushes to minimize brush strokes. Begin by properly preparing the surface by sanding and priming it to ensure adhesion. Apply the paint in thin, even layers, allowing each layer to dry completely before adding another. Consider using a roller or spray gun for larger surfaces to achieve a more uniform finish.
