INSTALLATION
RECOMMENDATIONS
In cold weather (outside tem-
peratures below 50°F [10°C]),
temperatures within the build-
ing should be maintained at a
minimum 50°F (10°C), both
day and night, before and
during spray operations and
until sprayed surfaces have
fully dried.
Adequate ventilation should be
provided to eliminate excess
moisture.
Mix dry texture material in
accordance with instructions
printed on the bag.
Gypsum board: Surfaces,
including joint-treated areas,
must be smooth, clean and
dry. First apply a coat of seal-
ing primer. Allow primer to
dry thoroughly, and maintain
adequate drying conditions
after application. Primer is to
minimize sagging of gypsum
board and discoloration or
difference in sheen on ceiling
surface. Add dry texture to
water. Use a piston pump
or Mono-type pump with a
texture gun. Minimum 3/4"
I.D. material hose. A hopper-
type gun with adequate air
supply is also suitable. Typical
coverage is 8-10 sq. ft. per lb.
for aggregated and 10-30 sq.
ft. per lb. for nonaggregated
textures. Mask appropriate
areas before spraying and
promptly remove overspray
from unprotected surfaces
