Don’t Paint Before You Do THIS First – Wall Prep 101

What happens here

For patches on textured walls, apply a knockdown spray texture to seamlessly blend the repair with the existing surface. Shake the spray can (e.g., DAP Knockdown spray texture) vigorously before use. It's highly recommended to perform a test spray on a piece of cardboard or an inconspicuous area first to ensure the desired pattern and spray distance. When applying to the wall, spray in short bursts while slightly curving the can. Feather the edges of the spray pattern to create a smooth, invisible transition around the patched area. Allow the texture to dry completely as per product instructions, which may include a light sanding if necessary after drying.

Goal: Apply a knockdown spray texture to patched areas to blend them with the existing wall texture, ensuring a test spray and feathered edges.
