Types of Commercial Specialty Textures
There are several categories of commercial specialty textures, each suited to different applications and aesthetic goals. Some textures are applied primarily for visual effect, while others serve a functional purpose, such as hiding surface imperfections or improving durability in high-traffic commercial areas.
Common Commercial Specialty Texture Options
- Knockdown and orange peel wall textures
- Sand and stucco-style textures
- Hand-troweled plaster effects
- Acoustic textured ceiling treatments
Applying Commercial Specialty Textures
The application process for commercial specialty textures typically begins with surface preparation, followed by application of the texture material using sprayers or hand tools depending on the desired effect. Once applied, the texture needs time to set before any topcoat or paint color is added. DWT Paints manages each stage of this process carefully to ensure a consistent texture across large commercial surfaces, which can be challenging without the right equipment and technique.

Commercial Specialty Textures for New Construction and Renovations
Commercial specialty textures are commonly requested for both new construction projects and renovations of existing commercial spaces. In new construction, specialty textures are often applied to drywall as part of the finishing process. In renovation projects, commercial specialty textures can be used to update outdated wall finishes or address surface imperfections that have developed over time.
Durability and Maintenance of Commercial Specialty Textures
Commercial specialty textures generally hold up well in commercial environments, though the texture itself can affect cleaning methods. Heavily textured surfaces may require more careful cleaning than smooth walls, since dust and debris can settle into grooves and recesses. DWT Paints
can recommend sealants and topcoats that make commercial specialty textures easier to maintain over time.
