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

Junk
Would Not RecommendWorst $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

Had to return due to nozzle failure
Would Not RecommendAlmost $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
Would Not RecommendLandlord 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
Would Not RecommendI 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.

Difficult to apply evenly
Would Not RecommendFollowed the instructions and found it quite difficult to do. The propellant force significantly decreased as the can got more and more empty, making it difficult to get an even application. Practiced on scrap, but still ended up scraping by off and reapplying 4 times. Not my fav

Try the oil based. It gives a firmer texture.
Would Not RecommendGets clogged easily and doesn’t hold up when knocking it down. I think the water based one is not beneficial for getting a good orange peel look.

Yep, it's wall texture
Would RecommendIt worked
Took some practice but works great
