Paint texture additive is an easy way to create an interesting look on your wall. There are several types of paint texture additive. Many people choose a texture that resembles sand for their walls. Rather than using actual sand, you can use an additive that will adhere better and hold a pattern. Additives let you purchase your paint in the regular bucket and add texture as needed. You can vary the amount of texture this way, and you can also save the rest of the paint for other types of walls.
Painting with texture is a favorite technique for altering walls with popcorn detailing on them. Standard construction projects and older buildings have one or two types of drywall finishes. Many people like to do something different with their walls when they decide to decorate, and they often put texture up to add interest. Texture painting is accomplished best with paint rollers made specifically for texture painting. A regular roller is typically too thin and doesn’t have enough sponge in it to do the job. When you mix the texture additive to previously bought paint, be sure to measure carefully and test on the roller you have.
You can paint with texture on drywall, but there are additive options that will help you resurface many different types of walls. Cement block and plaster also take textured paint. Some paint available in spray cans also comes with texture additive. Sand is one major texture choice for decorators, but there are many other types of textures to choose from.
