ABSTRACT:
A tool and method for applying a texture slurry to a surface is provided. The tool comprises a flat, rectangular body for mating to a smooth surface, such as a repaired portion of drywall. The body has a multiplicity of spatially positioned openings disposed therethrough. Each of the openings has a predetermined configuration and position on the tool, for providing a pattern substantially matching the appearance of existing textured surface adjacent to the smooth surface. The invented method includes first affixing the tool to the smooth area of the surface, then applying a texture slurry to the tool. The spatially positioned openings receive the slurry to apply the slurry to the smooth surface for forming a newly textured area. The spatially positioned openings in the tool enable a user to substantially match the appearance of the newly textured area, with the appearance of the existing adjacent textured surface. After the slurry is applied to the tool, the tool is removed and a trowel is lightly dram across the newly textured area, until the appearance of the newly textured area closely matches the appearance of the textured surface.
