Stone Fireplace Makeover with German Schmear

Hey all! I've been helping a friend update this old moss stone fireplace for a house they're getting ready to sell. We tried updated the grout for a german schmear kind of look. But I think it needs more mortar so the stones are more even - the grooves between the stones are still pretty deep. Even so... any thoughts on if this is headed in the right direction? should we paint it instead? https://preview.redd.it/63n1qncbt2ue1.png?width=1000&format=png&auto=webp&s=8fa3eb5977a24c30c4b9e09db9a514133a1bb2d1 submitted by /u/HillHomeLove [link] [comments]
