Noticed a big difference in my slab finish after switching to a different trowel

I've been using a 36 inch bull float for years, but last week I tried a 24 inch magnesium float on a 400 square foot patio job near Austin. The surface came out way smoother with almost no drag marks, and the timing on the initial set felt more forgiving. Has anyone else seen a bigger difference switching float sizes than they expected?

Huh, a magnesium float is different from a bull float though.

Yeah, I got better results just using a regular bull float on my last job.
