Troubleshooting Guide

Adjust the spray technique: Experiment with different spraying techniques to achieve a thicker
knockdown texture. Instead of a light and even spray, try using shorter bursts or more forceful
sprays. This can help create larger texture peaks and a more pronounced knockdown effect.
Apply multiple coats: Instead of a single heavy coat, apply multiple light coats of the texture.
Allow each coat to partially dry before applying the next one. This layering technique can help
build up the thickness of the knockdown texture gradually.
Orange Peel Texture not spraying fine enough
To achieve a finer Orange Peel texture please follow these suggestions:
Practice and technique: Before applying the texture to the actual project surface, it's always a
good idea to test it on a small sample surface. Practice your spraying technique on a scrap
piece of material or an inconspicuous area. Experiment with different spraying motions, such as
circular or cross-hatch patterns, to achieve the desired texture. Remember to maintain a
consistent spraying motion and pressure.
Adjust the distance: Try adjusting the distance between the can and the surface you are
spraying. Holding the can closer to the surface can often result in a finer texture. Start with a
shorter distance and experiment until you achieve the desired result.
Light, even sprays: Apply the texture in light, even sprays rather than heavy bursts. Rapid and
heavy spraying can lead to a coarser texture. By applying thin and controlled layer
