This tool rocks! While remodeling (DIY) we moved walls and had to patch a large area of the ceiling. I’d already tried several methods to match the knockdown texture of the existing ceiling, but it was never seamless. With this simple little tool, it was easy to make it as if the patched area was original to the ceiling. There is a trick to getting a flawless result.1) Apply the joint compound with a sheet rock knife scraping the edges of the patch flat with the existing ceiling2) Roll the area with the texture tool3) Wait at least 5 minutes (but not much longer) for the mud to start to set up4) Gently drag the sheet rock knife over the mud to create the knock down texture5) Let dry and paintHope that helps!
