KNOCKDOWN: Knockdown can be applied from light brocade to a heavy Spanish/Mediterranean look. Knockdown needs to be painted; it is only a partial covering of the surface. 50 -75% of total surface coverage.

ORANGE PEEL:  It literally looks like the skin of an orange - a good alternative to the smooth look. Orange Peel needs to be painted; it is only a partial covering of the surface. 70 - 95% of total surface coverage.

FOG for SMOOTH:  Fog was designed as an alternative to skim coating ceilings and walls. It helps alleviate the difference between the texture of the paper on the sheetrock and the sanded drywall joints. Fog needs to be painted as it is not washable and is not designed as a finished product.

SPLATTER:  Splatter can be applied as small as a pencil lead to as large as a dime. Splatter needs to be painted; it is only a partial covering of the surface. 30 - 70% of total coverage.

REGULAR TEXTURE:  Also called popcorn texture, this is the standard of the ceiling textures. It is a polystyrene beaded texture that has 100% coverage. Almost all manufacturers recommend priming the ceiling prior to application for a better bond and to reduce the possibilities of color variations bleeding through the bare sheetrock surface.

FOG/KNOCKDOWN CEILINGS:  This is the cream of the crop when it comes to knockdown textures. This procedure requires one day of drying time between applications.  A fog is applied to the ceiling first to allow it equal absorption rate before the final knockdown is applied. It may be left as a two-tone look or it can be painted over.
