What is a drywall hopper gun?

A texture hopper gun facilitates textured finishes for drywall-covered walls. The gun uses an air compressor to push mud through the nozzle of a gun and spray it on the wall or ceiling. Use texture hopper guns to create orange peel or popcorn-type finishes to drywall ceilings or walls.

What PSI should I set my texture gun at?

30-40 psi
Adjust air pressure starting at 30-40 psi. It is easier to remove plug if you first trigger gun. For overhead applications and high walls, position the hopper on the gun with the material fill open- ing facing toward the nozzle (front) of the gun.

Can you paint with a hopper gun?

With heavy duty plastic hopper built in, the spray gun is strong to bear 1.45 gallon paint, ideal for long time continuous painting. And the easy-pull swing trigger makes it easy to control flowing paint for better painting results. You will see the perfect and smooth paintings on your walls.

What tip do you use for knockdown texture?

Attach the spray nozzle to the gun—a nozzle measuring eight to 12 millimeters is ideal for knockdown textures.

Can I use all purpose joint compound for texture?

All-purpose compound is a pre-mixed mud sold in buckets and boxes. It can be used for all phases of drywall finishing: embedding joint tape and filler and finish coats, as well as for texturing and skim-coating.

Should I spray walls or ceiling first?

Spray the walls before the ceiling. Allow the wall paint to fully dry, cover the walls with tape and plastic, and spray the ceiling. Masking walls is a lot easier than masking a ceiling upside down if you were to spray the ceiling before the walls.
