Tried parging a foundation wall with a sprayer instead of by hand

Got a cheap hopper gun from Home Depot and figured it would save me hours on an old stone foundation up in New Hampshire. Ended up with half the mix sliding off in chunks and spent longer cleaning the nozzle than I would have just troweling it. Anybody else ever try to shortcut a wet parge job and regret it?

Oh man I did the exact same thing last summer. What a disaster that was.

Yeah, bet you air dried everything for a week after that!
