How to Blow Texture on Sheetrock
Preparation
- 1). Remove everything from the room. Cover all areas that won't receive texture with plastic sheeting held in place with masking tape. Cover all outlets, switches, light fixtures, windows, frames and baseboards with plastic.
- 2). Lay plastic sheeting on the floor, making sure all areas are under plastic. Tape heavy-duty plastic over all doorways in the room to prevent texture floating elsewhere.
- 3). Wear safety goggles and a cap when working with texture for protection. Put on a long-sleeved shirt, buttoned at the wrist, to keep the texture off your arms.
