Textured concrete wall cladding transforms the ugly into the beautiful

If you have an ugly concrete wall and you want it to look like something out of House Beautiful, you may need to think about going for a textured wallcovering. These are paints that have been specifically designed for concrete walls. These are usually labeled “concrete paint” or “mortar paint”. They are also usually water-based and do not have the associated toxic fumes found in oil-based acrylic paints that are designed for metal and wood surfaces.

These textured wallcoverings are a great way to not only protect the wall and those who live in the home, but they are also a great way to add fabulousness to a boring wall. In fact, there are now concrete paints that, when applied, dry to different colors that are similar to the look of textured wallpaper.

These water-based paints are very safe and easy to use, after all, they are water-based. In fact, all that is needed to clean the roller brush is to wash it under running water, not turpentine or paint thinners for acrylic paint which are very smelly and can be a health hazard. In fact, many find that by simply adding water to the paint, they can already thin it out and make it easier to apply.

Textured paint can also help protect the wall from the elements, especially rain. They can be water-based, but they are the best protectors against rain and sun. These paints are made with additives that guarantee it. These are also highly resistant to algal and fungal growth. In fact, many basement walls made of concrete would benefit from paint, as they can resist the growth of black fungus, a highly toxic plant that releases spores and causes health problems.

For those who have cracked walls, there is no need to despair. All you need is a concrete textured wallcovering that is thick enough to cover defects effectively. For larger cracks, all you need is a little bit of fixing and two coats of paint. Not only will this add freshness to the look of a dull gray rough wall, it will also make life healthier and brighter for everyone in the home. With so many colors and textures to choose from, there’s no way to miss out on a wide variety of paints.
