Hi Jon. I was having a pretty crappy day, water from shower just started leaking to the floor then wife noticed from downstairs it was leaking. I was already having a bad week, been in a car accident last Friday and now this leak which ruined the ceiling and the paint came off. I was cursing every thing around me even the Lord above saying I wish he would listen and cut me a break, after cursing him...I cooled off a bit and began to clean up the mess and have some orange peel texture and looking how to redo and stumbled upon your video. I can’t tell you, the message at the end really struck it home for me I just broke down and cried like a baby. Thank you for all you do and for restoring my faith.

This just saved my life. Repairing a wall with a small hole and got it covered in the spackle. Gotta work on texturing next this was very educational for me who hasn't repaired a wall ever before. Thanks!

Thanks for the review Jon. Using your advice and reading the instructions on the can, I just spray textured 48 square feet of new wallboard in my laundry room. I used the 25oz pro grade knockdown product and I used the Homax plastic knockdown knife with the foam padding. My existing walls are what I'd call medium knockdown as I've seen heavier. I tested on a piece of cardboard and found heaviest testure setting and lowest pressure was the best setting for me. All went pretty well.
A couple things to note though. Even though I applied to about the same number of sqft as they stated the can was good for at the heavy setting, I wish I had about 25% more product to spray. Also, and this is the most important thing, as the propellant in the can diminished, the spray was less forceful. Towards the last third of the can, it was barely squirting, you had to almost fling it on the wall. So if you have any harder to reach areas, DO THEM FIRST!
Overall, I'm happy with my results.

Watched your demo Jon before I repaired a small section of my ceiling that had developed a few small (but visible) cracks after a heavy rainfall. Worked perfectly ! Also, used Through The Roof roof sealant sealer over the asphalt flashing on the suspect roof area to make certain that doesn't happen again. Much thanks...

Came to this video wanting to see the spray texture process. Enjoyed the informative video, but my favorite part...those last few seconds!

This is an excellent product and we are very pleased with the results. Just make sure you follow the instructions and vigorously shake the can before - and throughout the process.

Thank you for this video. It's the kind of advice that you would hear from a friend that's been there. The part about masking is definitely something I'll do. I have to texture a bathroom, so this gives me the confidence knowing i wont have issues.

Thanks Jon, I coudn't read the dang directions cause they were too small in print and messed up my first can! Also, it was real cold so make sure you warm up the can under some warm water is what I've been told.

Let it dry first then sand it to desired look. I've used this shit all the time. Spray it on some what heavy get nice complete coverage. COME BACK THE NEXT DAY AND SAND IT TO A PERFECT LOOK!!

[kkliffurd]

You did a great job with the simple basics that gave me enough confidence (see it - try it) that I think it came out beautiful! Thanks again...loved your last printed statement! There might be those that could be offended by your statement; but, I appreciated it a lot!

How to prepare for paint after texture

[joseluisblanco]

Hey Jon thanks!! Now I will be able to attack my project Godspeed thanks for the video...

I have used about 30 cans of this stuff. it works better if you shake it for 1 minute then put the can in a pot of hot tap water for about 5 minutes. Then shake it again. start out on fine and go from there.

Thanks so much for this great video Jon. Very helpful. I purchase this product yesterday at Home Depot and they also sell a special knock down blade that is rubber-coated sold by homax. Jesus is Lord!
