First time on the forum and I have a question that may have been asked a lot before…apologies if that’s the case…
I’ve got a metal barn that was wired for electricity and dry walled (my first attempt!) about 13 years ago. It’s used as a tinkering shop/artists studio and, while the ceiling doesn’t drip when it rains, it’s only sealed against the Gulf Coastal Texas elements about as well as a typical 2 car garage. I’d like to paint the interior of this space and I don’t need it to be pretty. A faux stucco effect, even an inconsistent one, would suit the environment just fine. Is there a relatively inexpensive product that can be troweled on over slightly loosened paper tape, untaped joints, and drywall surfaces that were never painted - all in a relatively non climate controlled setting - that won’t flake off of walls and/or ceiling in 5 years time? I need something that can be primed and painted.
Thanks!
