- Practice on scrap drywall or cardboard until the blob size looks like your wall.
- Knock down with light pressure, since a heavy hand smears the blobs into a smooth skin.
- Read the label before you start, and keep a window open with a fan running while you spray.

About this product
Patching a knockdown wall after a drywall repair
You have patched a hole in a knockdown wall, and now a smooth square gives the repair away. Homax Knockdown Wall Texture puts spatter back on that square from a 10 oz aerosol. You spray the blobs, let them set for a moment, then drag a wide knife across them so the peaks flatten into the mottled pattern of the wall around them.
The formula is water-based, so wet spatter wipes off trim and hands with water, and the smell stays mild in a lived-in room. One can reaches up to 30 square feet, which suits a repair or two rather than a whole wall. It sprays medium to heavy knockdown only, so it will not stand in for orange peel. Once the texture is dry, you paint it to match.
The wall texture shelf holds 9 more products beside the Knockdown Wall Texture, Water-Based, and every one belongs to the Homax texture and repair range.
Before you start
An aerosol texture can is under pressure and its propellant burns: keep it away from open flame and heat while you spray, air the room, and do not leave a can in a hot car or a sunny window. Sanding the patch first raises fine dust, so wear a dust mask and catch it on a drop cloth.
