Texture Spraying

painterman

Ok I a little confused about texture spraying. I have used a hopper with a thin mud mixture to create what I would call a knock down finish. Sprayed on the mud... let it sit a while (5 or so mins) and flatten it down with a 12 inch knife. Now I'm reading about spraying it on using a 617 tip ...is this done with an airless paint sprayer? or am I missing something?

Heh, ya you read something into a two part question, I answered his post about what size tips I PAINT knockdown with, then answered his posts about texturing.

Not spraying it on, but spraying on it.

Joe is that one of the new machines that load from the top and the texture is sprayed out a tube with the gun on the end of the hose? I used one this past summer for a job, The gun came with 4 different tip setting on it. I was spraying medium popcorn for a guy. it seemed to work ok.
