1. SHAKE CAN vigorously FOR ONE MINUTE prior to use.
2. TWIST OFF safety tab from nozzle.
3. Always practice spraying on cardboard or scrap drywall to determine preferred pattern. Pointing away from face, adjust dial to desired pattern: – STRAIGHT UP for LIGHT KNOCKDOWN. – COUNTER CLOCKWISE for HEAVY KNOCKDOWN.
4. SPRAY using a circular motion. For a heavier knockdown pattern, spray in short bursts to build up texture. Shake can occasionally throughout use.
5. Allow texture to dry for 4 to 8 minutes, then knockdown. Use knockdown or 6-8” drywall knife, wet blade, hold nearly parallel to surface, and draw across texture applying little to no pressure. DRY TIME: Allow to dry 2-5 hours before painting (depending on heaviness of pattern).
6. TO STORE: To store, clear nozzle by turning can upside down and spraying until texture is cleared.
