Wooster Brush, 9-Inch R233-9 Texture Maker Roller Cover, Tan

I needed to repair a 2x2ft section of stucco. First started with Rapid Set Stucco patch to fill the large area and laid it in level. The patch left a surface that was too smooth as compared to the surrounding stucco. I tried all kinds of approached to achieve the right textured finish. None came close. I needed a rough 3/32" bumpy surface. In desperation I bought this roller. I used wall tile mortar mix at a normal to wet consistency. I spread a very thin layer over the area to be textured with a trowel/spackle knife and then used the roller to create the texture. You will want to experiment first on a flat board to find the right mortar mix moisture consistency and roller pressure for your finish. As noted by other reviewers, using this for sanded paint will probably not work. The plastic roller loops are to big to hold paint but worked great for the mortar mix. You might be able to texture the stucco patch directly if it has not cured and you keep it wet. Highly recommended.,

This is a fine little roller that does the job for texturing ceilings. The main point to remember about this item, is that to use a fairly "loose" mix before applying to the ceiling. If you use a basic batch out of the pail, it will be too thick and not apply evenly. I had to get my texture to a peanut-butter like consistency, but after that this roller did the rest. You can spend hours doing it by hand. No one will stop you. However, when you are physically tired and drained, then order this roller to get the job done. Don't waste time being too cheap. This item was made for a purpose, and does Great when you use it correctly.

After replacing the roof on our tiny home (an old hunting cabin that we renovated) I wanted MINIMAL work to be put into replacing the ceilings so I went with a textured look over drywall. No mudding and sanding. This worked perfect for us! I basically rolled a mixture of mud and water onto the ceiling and used a mud scraper thing to smooth the texture out just a bit. Sooo easy to clean up afterwards! Super easy to use. It’s the same size as a normal paint roller. I don’t see it lasting for more use though, it’s so difficult to clean.. We are pleased with the overall look after everything was done, dried and then painted!!

As described. Used for bedliner.

This didn’t work at all.

Not recommended with paint as when you apply to the wall no texture but paint spraying everywhere. Use watered down joint compound. Roll in a down ward motion to get the best results. After compound dries knock it down with a mud knife and then paint. Results where what I was looking for but again don't use with paint as paint is just to thin and when rolling will both spray everywhere and leave no texture.

I was remodeling a room and had Styrofoam tiles glued to the ceiling with construction adhesive. after a week of scraping glue, I was fed up and got a bucket of popcorn texture ( sadly ) and this roller to cover up the glue residue. It works well, and was able to get the project done with ease. the nap holds a lot of material but the thick material means you'll be reapplying your paint/texture often.

So I know this is odd when I moved into my husband's place he had plywood in the living room he did it due to hanging heavy things on the wall. Bit I hated the texture so I bought this texture paint and absolutely loved it. It covered up the plywood but left the sturdiness. Now you will get a arm work out due to it being thick and heavy but it works Great.
