How are texture coatings typically applied?

Texture coatings are typically applied using specialty spray guns and applicators. This method allows for a more controlled application and enables the applicator to achieve the desired texture and finish on the surface being coated. Specialty spray guns are designed to handle thicker materials, such as texture coatings, and can create various patterns and textures that are often required in decorative finishes.

While other methods like paint rollers, aerosol cans, and brush application can be used for certain types of paint or finishes, they do not provide the same level of control and finish quality that specialty spray guns offer. For example, paint rollers and brushes may not effectively distribute thicker texture materials evenly, leading to an inconsistent appearance. Similarly, aerosol cans are typically suited for smaller jobs or touch-ups, rather than large areas where a specific texture profile is desired. Therefore, the use of specialty spray guns and applicators is the preferred method for applying texture coatings, ensuring the best results.
