Any surface onto which a thick media is applied. There are texture paints that have sand or silica mixed in, or actual sculpted areas applied to a wall by trowel to produce a myriad of effects. The origins may have been as a fix for constantly cracking plaster walls or ceilings, to simply a desire to manipulate 'liquid stone' or plaster products into three-dimensional art. The methods and techniques are as endless as the artist's imagination.

We feel it is necessary to prime Precision Board prior to painting because not all paints adhere to HDU for the long term. Coastal Enterprises makes two types of Primer/Fillers: FSC-88 - a one component solvent based, primer/filler, and FSC-88 WB - a one component waterbased primer/filler. They both are applied directly to Precision Board, dry quickly, sand easily, and accept all types of paints. Also acceptable is any other type of primer that has been developed specifically for use on HDU. See similar questions...
