Water-based or oil-based: matching orange peel on your wall

Orange peel is the fine spatter that looks like the skin of the fruit, and most Homax cans for it let you turn the nozzle from fine to heavy until the spray matches what is already on your wall. Water-based cans clean up with water and smell less. The oil-based wall can dries tack free in about 5 minutes and lists an application range of 60 to 85 degrees F. If you want to see where the spray landed, the color-changing can goes on blue and dries white.

Size the can to the patch. A 10 oz water-based can covers up to 90 sq ft, the 20 oz oil-based can up to 110, and the 25 oz Pro Grade oil-based can up to 125. Pro Grade cans also let you set spray pressure, not only the pattern. For a ceiling, reach for one of the two cans with a vertical tip: the orange peel and knockdown ceiling can covers up to 80 sq ft, and the Pro Grade ceiling can covers up to 100 at a fine setting and 50 at a heavy one.

Questions

Orange peel texture: what people ask

Which Homax orange peel texture do you use on a ceiling?

The 20 oz ceiling texture sprays orange peel or knockdown through a vertical tip and covers up to 80 sq ft. The Pro Grade orange peel ceiling can adds an adjustable nozzle and lists 100 sq ft at a fine setting. The other orange peel cans are made for walls.

Should you pick oil-based or water-based Homax orange peel?

Oil-based sets fast, with a tack-free time of 5 minutes on the 20 oz can. Water-based has a low odor and cleans up with water, and a 10 oz can covers up to 90 sq ft. For a small patch in a lived-in room, the water-based cans are easier to live with.

How do you change the size of the Homax orange peel pattern?

On the regular cans, you rotate the nozzle to move from fine to heavy spatter. The Pro Grade cans let you adjust both the spray tip and the pressure, close to the way a hopper gun works. Test each setting on cardboard first.
