Great videos the only thing I do differently is when I cut out existing drywall with the texture on it is I take a peice of new drywall and put them side by side and do a test shoot to make sure the match is spot on and the only reason is because using different hoppers can throw of the pattern I've learned

This was a fantastic texture video! Short and I loved the bucket lid screen and am going to make one [shows how thin the mix needs to be for Orange Peel]. That adjustable (all texture) hopper is cool better than changing nozzles. I was forced to do texture on some subcontracted jobs recently with the Homax cans and it was a learning curve which included not shooting and the largest settings by dialing it way back to get Orange Peel not popcorn. QUESTION: I've always heard the great thing about texture is it hides imperfections but found that wasn't true for the cans and probably only for the hopper IF put on very very heavy. Why do so many people say this when it really isn't true??
@scottssheetrockservices
2 жыл бұрын
So for a light orange peel the homemax cans do really well I have other videos on how to get the patch correct but yes it doesn’t cover much you have to make sure you dot your eyes and cross your tees prior to texture. I have a knockdown will cover a lot and so will popcorn but you have to have a smooth transition when it comes to a light orange peel. Hope this helps. Scott

Hey Scott thanks for this great video on shooting orange peel, I went ahead and followed your instructions sprayed it on ceilings and walls of a basement and now I’m having an issue with paint coverage I saturated the ceiling with PVA primer followed up with Glidden ceiling paint which goes on pink and dries white and I have tiger stripes all over the ceiling which really looks horrible any suggestions on what I could do to fix this or possibly what I could’ve done better prior to painting?

You can buy a screen from any hardware store I just cut the inside of a plastic bucket top out and then staple the screen and cut the excess around the bucket lid. Just make sure you don’t get the smallest screen holes or you’ll never get the mud through it. Hope this helps

As an epidemiologist (and a DIYer at times), I would urge you to start wearing a respirator when spraying. You don't see particulate matter, but it is released during spraying. And you definitely do not want it in your lungs.

Usually stand somewhere between 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 feet away from the wall depending on how big of an area you’re spraying I might back up a little bit more you can use regular mud but also USG makes a really good brown box of premixed spray texture works really good for a light orange peel hope this helps

When I match texture from new drywall to pre existing texture, I always skim coat to all inside and outside corners of the wall I shoot.

So I have a large compressor that blows a constant of 110 PSI‘s if you can be anywhere between 100-120 on a constant pressure. You’re going to get your best results if you do have a small compressor you have to spray until your pressure is low turn the hopper off and then let the compressor build back up ,you cannot spray a light orange peel with light air pressure.

Most people use a small compressor I have a big compressor so I can do big jobs I would think maybe different hoppers with a lesser pressure you can get a successful light orange peel but with my hopper once the pressure goes under 80 it starts sputtering and you lose that fine pattern so the higher the pressure the better pattern you can keep consistently hope that helps
