About us
Textured walls add depth and character to a space, but painting them requires special techniques for a flawless finish. Start by cleaning the wall to remove any dust or grime, which can interfere with paint adhesion. Use a high-quality primer designed for textured surfaces to ensure even coverage. Choose a thick-nap roller, as it holds more paint and penetrates the texture effectively, preventing bare patches. When applying paint, use long, overlapping strokes to distribute the color evenly. For added coverage, consider a thicker or elastomeric paint designed for rough surfaces. Edges and corners can be tricky—use a smaller brush to cut in and reach into crevices. If the texture is extreme, a paint sprayer may be more effective, delivering a smooth, uniform layer across uneven surfaces. Adding a glaze after painting can enhance the texture by creating shadows and depth, giving a dynamic finish. With these techniques, textured walls become beautiful, visually engaging features, showcasing their unique look while still looking polished and well-finished.
