Homax 4092 Aerosol Texture, Water-Based Orange Peel Wall Texture, 20 oz

Ok I read all the Negative reviews. I own a painting business, I use a lot of Homax water base texture. There are things you must do. First make sure you shake the can for at least 3 minutes and I mean shake it up good you should hear the bearing rattle as you shake. I warm the can up under the tap with warm water which really helps !! Make sure you spray a squirt on a piece of card board to get it started before spraying on the wall ! Turn dial to the right all the way if you want fine texture or in between for different size texture I have used hundreds of cans ,so I am used to using this product. I don’t recommend oil based texture as it dries fast but when you paint over it once it’s dry it never looks as good as water based texture. Hope this helps this is a really great product, make sure you spray two feet back from wall you are texturing and don’t soak the wall do small spurts Try it on a piece of card board first to get a feel for pressure and size of texture you pick with dial.

This was great. Did a remodel. Contractors didn’t do a great job. First time I ever used this. Thankful for the tips from other users. Went quite well for a rookie. Showing before and after

The Homax 4092 Aerosol Texture Water-Based Orange Peel Wall Texture is a decent product for small wall repairs and touch-ups. It does the job, but it requires a bit of practice to get the texture just right. The aerosol can is convenient and easy to use, but I found that the spray was a bit inconsistent at times, leading to uneven texture. It helps to do a few tests first. The finish matches well with existing orange peel textures, but achieving a seamless blend can be challenging. Overall, it's a handy product for quick fixes, but don't expect professional results without some trial and error.

Just need to shake it for about 10 minutes prior to use. Watch youtube videos to see how to use it well. It looks perfect to my old wall. No mess!

This doesn’t work at all it sprayed out like wet shaving cream and the patched drywall holes got wet and crumbled. The spray ran down the wall all over the place. And I’m out $15. Ugh.

For small projects, this is the best you can buy out there. Expensive though with amount of material inside.

I purchased this to apply texture to a drywall area that had been repaired. The first can I used (purchased through Amazon) work perfectly and the orange peel texture matched very closely to the remaining area of the wall. Since my walls have a very light texture, I tested the spray patterns and selected the lightest spray and then followed the directions of heating the can in hot water to make the spray pattern even lighter as that is what I needed for my walls. It worked perfectly. The second can (purchased from Home Depot as I needed it the same day) was another story. I followed the exact same process of testing the spray, dialing it down to a lighter spray, heating the can and testing again. Everything was great until I started spraying the drywall and the flimsy nozzle came loose and it started spraying big lumps. I had to wipe off the texture (and you simply can't get 100% of it off) and there was nothing I could do to fix the nozzle so the can would work. The problem is the flimsy spray nozzle that incorporates the nozzle as well as the dial to select the spray pattern. While I felt it was flimsy with the first can (and I handled it gingerly) it did work. The design seems flawed and the nozzle does not appear to be securely attached. Also, I know it was not an issue that I got someone else's reject (which can be a problem with returns at stores like Home Depot) as there is a tab on top that you need to remove before the can will spray (and on my can the tab was intact). I am forced to buy another can as I need to finish the area and hope I do not experience the same issue.

This worked very well for a patch I did. I practiced with the spray pattern for a minute or two to get it just right and then sprayed my patch. I cannot not tell the difference between the original and the patch. Easy solution for the money and it is easy for any novice to use. One of the tricks for me was to not spray too heavily. You might initially think you should spray more heavily than you need to. Best to spray lightly and then add more later if necessary.

Can did not come with the nozzle.

Easy to get ideal texture, very helpful
