Ratings & Reviews for Homax Pro grade 20 Ounce(s) White Knockdown Water-based Ceiling Texture

Terrible!

Was able to get about $5 worth of product out of a $20 can. Total ripoff. Seriously had about a 10" diameter spot to repair and wasn't even able to accomplish that.

Waste of money

Followed all directions on can, worked for about 4 seconds, then clogged up and wouldn't spray anymore. Don't waste your time or money. Do not recommend.

Awful

Bought this yesterday. First time patching holes myself. Had to patch two medium size holes in ceiling from an old light fixture. Bought this can to “easily” spray texture. Don’t want to rent equipment for such a small job. Followed all directions and the stuff just comes oozing out of every hole in the top of the nozzle, the handle the lock button and even the two small holes on the side of the cap. Made a huge mess all down my sleeve and pants. I cleared the nozzle and rinsed the cap. Ran it u...

more on the floor

shaking extra time as a precaution.... started off well... then just spraying air and texture all over drop cloth. this can covered 48"x 48" that's all

Faulty Product; Not Near Enough Pressure

I purchased one can and had the same experience as other user reviewers. THANK GOODNESS, I tested it in the garage on newsprint before attempting a wall repair. Shook it 2x suggested timeframe and it just oozed and dribbled out the nozzle. No way would it have sprayed a fine pattern horizontally. I returned the can thinking it was just an isolated "bad aerosol fill" but after reading other 8 reviews, I will return the replacement can for a refund. I agree with another reviewer, either re-...

Absolutely Awful

Had to repair a 3ft x 3ft piece of ceiling in my kitchen. This stuff is absolutely horrible. The pressure is nowhere of where it needs to be. You will never get the repair to match the rest of the ceiling because the rest of the ceiling is sprayed with a 120psi air compressor. I used to finish drywall and this can does not mimic the real thing whatsoever. My best advice to anyone who uses this is to tarp everything you don’t want this stuff getting on because even by holding it away from the are...

Waste of money!

I should have listened to all the reviews. This product is garbage! It might work for a light orange peel texture repair. I couldn’t even get it to blend and I watched videos. Don’t buy.

Garbge product

Doesn’t work. Clogs up and sprays all over not sticking and falling to the floor. Messy

Do not buy

I came to this site to make sure I was using product correctly and clearly I am having same issue as everyone else. Nozzle gets clogged and it’s spraying out liquid all over my new countertops. Super disappointed.

Fix The Can

The spray caps on these are teribble. It just oozes out of the top while you spray and gets all over you and the ground. Seems like it works well if it didn't leak everywhere .

Ceiling knockdown texture.

I shook this can for about 20 minutes before the ball even rattled. Then product came out in long stream oozing down side of can not onto ceiling. Made a real mess. I know how to use knockdown product, this was NOT efficient at all.. I retried a while later and product would not even come out of the can. So I went old school and just used drywall mud and did the knockdown myself. Would NOT recommend this product...

Thorrible texture

First off it comes out flat and doesnt look anything like knockdown. Worst product ever. Complete waste of money. I HATE hiring someone to do this but i cant find a viable DIY product that works....

Don't buy!

Terrible product, as the other reviews mentioned got more of it on me than on the ceiling. Spray nozzle clogs and more ends up on the floor than on the ceiling. Don't waste your money!

Fine contents, horribly flawed mechanism

I had read the horrible reviews for this product over on the orange company's site after buying it at Lowe's; the reviews are bad on here too, just not quite as bad. The even lower average on the other site is more accurate, I think: this product has a very erratic, easily clogged, poor spray mechanism. My bottle was freshly purchased (so not a case of it sitting in my garage for ages, and not previously used on prior projects), and I definitely exceeded the 1 minute shake (probably 2-3). Hav...

I wish I’d read reviews. Waste of money.

This spray doesn’t work worth crap. First off it’s tan so not an invisible touch up. You’re going to have to paint over it. Second, it really didn’t even make bumps on my ceiling just like an ugly spray paint look. I did everything people said to do, even warmed up the can in water and shook it like crazy and really I’m pretty sure I just ended up inhaling all this stuff. The entire can came out but didn’t do anything but make brown splotches on the ceiling. Back to Lowe’s I go.

Terrible

This product is absolutely horrible. It clumps up and gets everywhere. It wouldn’t spray after the first 2 min and dropped all over everything. Terrible. Do not buy.

What a waste of my money

I bought this for a 60 Sq Ft bathroom. I shook it for at least twice as long as suggested. It sprayed about a minute and clogged completely. So tomorrow I will go to Menards and buy a cheaper brand that I am sure will out perform this Junk. You should probably stop making this as I wont be buying any of your products. Actually 1 star is definitely too high of a rating. PPG should be embarrassed.

terrible product

save your time and money, just rent a hopper and gun, this stuff is useless, worked for about 10 seconds then jus oozed out of nozzle, even after cleaning it. I ended up with more texture on me that on the ceiling. only reason I gave it a 1 is because there is no zero or negative numbers

Horrible product. Bought three cans and each only worked for ten seconds before the spray stopped and the texture just poured out of the tip. Do not purchase!

When it works, it's great, but...

Bought two cans. The first can sprayed as advertised. The second can, however, only dripped down the can and onto to floor! Not worth it!
