HOMAX roll on wall texture information
The walls in my kitchen (lathe and plaster) were previously textured. There are a few spots that the texture has peeled off my but it is otherwise solid everywhere else. The issue is that there are many tiny cracks that paint wont cover. I've been looking at the idea of using wall texture to essentially fill in any gaps and smooth over the existing surface. I've been looking at Homax products and found two that look mostly the same but I wanted to see if anyone had experience with them since the dry mix is far more cost effective. My plan was to use a heavy nap roller and roll it on the walls in order to fill in any cracks and spots in the preexisting texture. I was going to use a large drywall knife to smooth down any rough/high spots once its rolled. Any information about these products would be great. I know that ripping out the plaster and putting up new drywall would be the preferable thing to do, but since I am in the military I have to have this house ready to sell in about 1.5 years so I need to work with what I've got due to the limited amount of time I have. I am looking for improved/good enough not perfect. Thanks for any suggestions. submitted by /u/Legitimate_Gap_3613 [link] [comments]
