What happens here

After the spray texture has dried (oil-based texture dries quickly, usually within 5-15 minutes), apply a thick coat of paint to the repaired corner using a paint roller. This first coat acts as a primer and helps to unify the surface. Once the first coat is dry, apply a second thick coat of paint to ensure full coverage and a consistent finish. This final step leaves the corner looking brand new and seamlessly integrated with the wall.

Goal: Paint the repaired corner to blend with the existing wall

Tools and materials

  • Paint Bucket — Holding the paint

So, now it's been about 15 minutes. I'm going to roll a nice good thick coat of paint on here. And then after that dries, I'll roll one more coat. This first coat will act as the primer and then we'll come back and roll another thick coat right over the top of that. And we'll have a nice brand new corner on this corner metal in the garage. Now we're going to let this paint dry right here. We're going to finish painting this wall and we got ourselves a brand new corner.
