Best BlackJack 57 applicator

What did you find to be the best applicator for applying BlackJack 57 to the coop floor and walls?

I found a paint roller easy enough. Just dump it, and push it around with the roller. If I were you, I would not use this stuff on the walls. It looks best, when covered by a layer of pine shavings.

We used it over a OSB flooring and when it dried it was sharp so we put a cheap vinyl flooring over it. We also used it on our roost boards and the same thing happen. We had to sand them down really well and paint over it due to it lifting all the splinters. I didn't want them to hurt their feet while roosting at night. It worked great to water proof the floor but I wouldn't use it anywhere their feet will touch.

I wonder what caused that to happen. Still trying to decide over blackjack, vinyl or these sheets of plastic from HD. I don't plan on painting until we get a few 70 degree+ days for it to dry. Maybe it doesnt take to osb as well as plywood.

It water proofed the floor and that was good but when we felt how prickly it was we didn't want the chickens to hurt their feet. So the cheap vinyl flooring did the job.
