Ratings & Reviews for DAP 20 Fluid ounce(s) White Knockdown Water-based Wall Texture

Terrible, wipes right off!

Have used a different brand for 2 years, thought I'd switch it up and try something different - BIG mistake. I applied, let dry for 24 hours, and it literally wiped right off with my hands. I didn't even rub it, just lightly brushed with my bare hands... and it came off like dust. Now in the trash!

Poor Spray Ability

The spray trigger didn't worked very poorly. Had to use two hands to make it spray and wasn't at all happy with its spray ability. Have used another brand and was much happier.

Great when it actually works

I bought 2 cans to cover up some patches on 1 wall. the first can quit working after using about 3/4 of it. I thought maybe it was empty even though I could still hear the material inside when I shook it. I started using the 2nd can and got 2 whole sprays out of it before it also stopped working.

spray texture

Tried to use this on a ceiling. Would not spray in a horizontal position. Texture did not knock down like other products

Garbage

Trigger didn't work. Cannot control flow. This junk turned a 10 minute job into a 2 hour circus. 1.5 hours spent just cleaning up the mess this product made. Do not buy it, you'll be wasting your money. And Lowes won't even let you

Junk

Worst $21 I’ve ever spent. Pull the trigger and it didn’t spray. I was able to get it to spray by pushing the top but my finger was too big and it hurt. Poor spray and it dribbled on my new bathroom vanity. Don’t buy this, buy the competitor

Did NOT work.

Followed the directions exactly when getting ready to use it to texture a bathroom wall. Trying it on a scrap piece of drywall, it started correctly but then appeared to get clogged. I shook it again and then it would only come out in a stream. Returning the product for a refund.

trigger does not work

Had to return due to nozzle failure

Almost $30 and had to return because the nozzle wasn’t outputting product properly. Waste of time and money. The $10 cans from HD work better

DAP Orange Peel Can is the worst

Landlord so I do a lot of sheet rock repair. I’ve bought these 3 times only one worked. The other 2 failed. The straw they give you to control texture size blows off but usually the whole can clogs and stops working after a few seconds anyway. Buy a different brand unless you want ultimate frustration.

Doesn’t Work

I only had 8 sq ft to repair. The first can made it 6 sq ft. Returned and got another. This one made it the two sq ft before it quit working. Shake shake shake. Pull real hard. Nothing. I was going to touch up a few places and couldn’t even do that. You still have to do the knockdown, so if you can’t do that, this doesn’t help. I think a brush and hardware cloth would work better, for much less than $22.

Works as advertised

Use are friendly for newbies in remodeling

I had to replace a patch in my ceiling, and I have popcorn ceilings. I was told that this product would not work. And it works fantastic, would recommend it to anybody, especially those like me that are new to remodeling ' Easy to use
