  • It is a good idea to protect your lungs when sanding.

  • I wouldn't recommend can spray to anyone. My time is too valuable. The only time I have had a call back on a patch repair was when I used this stuff. Tends to trap propellant in the compound and bubble when the gas escapes. It is very difficult to match existing knock down compared to the versatility of a hopper. Can spray may be quick, but not a quick as a repair done right the first time with a hopper.

  • I can see your point but, I've always had good luck with cans. I must admit I do use a hopper for most of my repairs. I just wanted to show people that canned texture is available and is suitable for small patch jobs.

  • it's amazing info. I'm about to paint my walls but didn't know what to start to make good texture!! Superb!!

  • You did a great job on this video. Question: Will the can texture be useful if I'm only doing a light drywall repair (picture hanging holes or dings)? I don't like for repairs to have that flat finish because it differs from the texture of drywall paper. I'm a woman trying to do light drywall repairs myself to keep the house looking well-kept. Thanks, and again, I really find this video very, very helpful.

  • Thanks for the easy-to-follow steps.

    Explanation...simple...thanks again!.

  • Is there any reason to use a dust mask?

  • Nice!!!!

  • hey thax alot man i do texture as well and yur vidoe helped me out thanx again. pople ask me for the slap on texture but i didnt knew what the hell that was now i do.

  • "Knock down" is an insider's term. For somebody searching youtube looking for advice on a first-time drywall repair, that term needs to be explained. Otherwise, a great presentation!

  • Thank's, very helful...I was wandering if there was any texture being sold in a can, I just finish fixing some holes in my son's room and did'nt want to spend alot of money on a hopper for such a small job..... Thank's againg.

  • my wife said your welcome.!

  • great video
