My new townhouse has textured paint throughout - even the ceilings!
It's that semi-circle swirl effect that some contractors use to quick finish drywall. The look is dated and gives a psychedelic feel to the rooms. How can I cover this up?
I had a drywall tech tell me it had to be replastered to give a smooth finish. Another suggested a knockdown finish over the texture (oh good, then we'd have swirls and dots!) Naturally both of these options were estimated to cost thousands.
Can anyone make a suggestion to correct the problem. I vaguely remember that there was a filler-type paint on the market but I can't seem to locate it. Help!
