I Transformed The Worst Garage In The Neighborhood

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

The host proceeds to apply texture to the garage walls and ceiling using a texture sprayer (hopper gun) powered by an air compressor. The drywall mud, prepared to a 'melted milkshake' consistency, is loaded into the sprayer. He sprays in a circular motion, moving systematically across all surfaces, ensuring an even and consistent texture application. This step transforms the smooth, repaired drywall into a finished, textured surface. The host removes his mask and expresses his dislike for drywall work, comparing the physical and emotional toll to menopause.

Goal: Apply texture to the garage walls and ceiling.

What they say

All right, it's go time. It's go go go time. I got my hopper here. I got my air compressor there. I mixed up my mud that to consistency of like a melted milkshake. So, whatever you think your melted milkshake looks like, that's what it is. Then we're going to start spraying it, and we're going to work it in a circular pattern. It's going to get ugly before it gets pretty, but in the morning, it's going to look incredible, right? Let's get to work.
