What paint technique for fauxadobe walls? |
|
I am doing my livingroom
Spanish style (not Mexico -
Spain). After researching I
can only find very few colors
they used on the walls. Ocre
is mainly outdoor but was also
used on the interior and of
course Adobe. I just hate
having plain white walls so I
am hoping to use a brownish
color on the walls and
whitewash with white. Does
anyone have any experience
with this? I could use the
help I've never done this
technique. I also dont know if
maybe a different technique
would better mimic adobe
walls.
Thanks ! |

One thing you might do before
painting is to texture the
walls so that they look like
adobe.
You'll need to get a box of
drywall mud (comes in a 50
pound box), a stucco brush, a
6-inch spackle knife, a bucket
to thin out the mud, and a
drywall sanding screen
(optional). Also, make sure to
get lots of dropcloths,
because this is a very messy
procedure.
Scoop some mud into the bucket
and dilute it with water until
its the consistency of stirred
mayonaise (not so much that
it's runny, but enough that
you can scoop it up with the
stucco brush). Take a brush
full of mud and fling it at
the wall. It should stick to
the wall and not run down the
wall. If it's too runny,
scrape it off with the spackle
knife, put it back into the
bucket, and add more mud to
thicken it.
Fling the mud at the wall to
cover it, but not completely.
The mud will be the high
points of the texture and
where there is no mud will be
the low point. When the wall
is covered, let it sit and dry
for about 15 minutes.
Lightly drag the spackle knife
across the blobs of mud to
flatten them. Go in different
directions in different areas
of the wall so as not to
create a definite pattern.
When you're done, let it dry
for a couple of days. After
it's dry, you can lightly sand
it with a drywall sanding
screen to smooth out rough
edges or just leave it rough.
If you sand it, brush it off
with a soft broom to remove
the dust. Prime and paint.
It's really a lot easier than
it sounds, once you get the
hang of how to do the
splattering of mud and the
knockdown (flattening)
technique. And, it really
gives a great adobe-like
texture. |

How do I change my defaultadobe program, so the itemsopen Adobe reader and notAdobe Photoshop? |
|
I know how to change the
defaults so that items that
are saved on my computer open
in Adobe Reader vs Photoshop.
I also know how to right click
and openwith reader over an
another adobe program.
However, when trying to open
some items in links/hyperlinks
that are PDFs, my computer
still opens them in photoshop.
The default setting on my
computer for PDFs, listed in
the folder options, is set to
open in Adobe Reader. |
|
Right click on the PDF and
choose Open With. Select Adobe
Reader and check the box to
always use this application,
then press ok. |
