With a dragging action you might be able to blend into the existing random pattern. Or use a clumped rag?
The rollers seem to give only a consistent pattern.
I'm liking Easy Sand 45(min dry) for blending.
It is dry but you can control the mix after stirring in a 14" tray (with 2" knife) and waiting a few for absorption.
Knock off the surrounding and do a layer at a time w/dry time until flush. Should be almost no sanding. |
I tested the brush yesterday, it did not come out ANYTHING like that pic. but then I did not smash it like the guy did in the pic above.
to me my texture looks like maybe they used a mop. I have heard that some have used a mop.
cant seem to get anyone to come out and give me a price.
I sheet rocked the entire room and was going to let someone else mud it but I gave up and just did it myself.
scraping is still an option but I don't think I am up to all that ceiling work.
