Manual Drywall Textures<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

When drywall texture is applied by hand, they are manual<\/em> textures, or hand<\/em> textures. For this type of drywall texture application, basic hand tools, like trowels and hawks, are used to achieve the desired look. Most often, a simple pan and knife are the tools chosen to apply manual drywall textures. Additional hand tools, such as specialized brushes and rollers, are used to complete the textured swirl, stomp, and swoosh motifs into the drywall mud. Sometimes, commercial paint sprayers are used to apply drywall texture, but this method is still considered manual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spray Drywall Textures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When drywall texture is sprayed onto a surface, they are spray<\/em> textures. This method of drywall texture application requires specialized machinery that pumps drywall texture onto surfaces. Such machines are can be electric or gas-powered, but all are manufactured with powerful pumps that supply drywall mud through inner lines, and out of a special nozzle or tip. The designs in the drywall mud are created using compressed air and a sprayer gun, rather than by hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
