My timelapse of texturing a garage ceiling with a stamp pattern. After scraping all of the loose/peeling paint and surrounding stamp patterns, I mudded the edges, then floated out the edges to center with a 2nd coat of mud / topping. Wet sanding to follow (pre-mix topping is easier to wet sand than the dry/powdered stuff), to make the edges blend.
I mixed about 2-3 gallons of pre-mix topping with water for this project. I stamp the lid on the ground to rid some of the stamp so the pattern isn't so heavy, and if the pattern is still heavy on the ceiling, I take some from the heavy pattern when the stamp is more dry.
After the stamps dry, I knock the tips off and surface smoother with a wooden block.
Finally, I paint the stamps twice and the rest of the ceiling once.
I hope you enjoy!
