Abstract:
An aerosol texturing system for applying a layer of texture material on an uncoated portion of a substrate substantially to match a coated portion of the substrate, comprises an aerosol assembly, texture material, and propellant material. The aerosol assembly defines a product chamber and is selectively operable in a first mode in which the product chamber is sealed and in a second mode in which fluid is allowed to flow out of the product chamber along a dispensing passageway. The texture material and propellant material are disposed within the product chamber. The texture material comprises a base portion and a particulate portion comprising at least one particulate material. When the aerosol assembly is in the second mode, the propellant material is adapted to force the texture material out of the aerosol assembly along the dispensing passageway and onto the uncoated portion of the substrate.
Abstract:
A texturing system for applying texture material to a surface. The texturing system comprises a container, a valve assembly, texture material, and propellant material. The container assembly defines a product chamber. The valve assembly is mounted to the container assembly and is operable in closed and open configurations. The texture material comprises a coating portion and a particulate portion and is disposed within the product chamber. The particulate portion comprises urethane particles. The propellant material is disposed within the product chamber and is substantially inert to the urethane particles. Operation of the valve assembly in the open configuration allows the propellant material to force the texture material from the product chamber and onto the surface.
Abstract:
A method of applying texture material to a surface. A block of chip material is provided. A physical structure of the chip material is not substantially altered when the chip material is exposed to a propellant material. The block of chip material is processed to obtain chips, and the chips are combined with a coating portion to obtain acoustic texture material. Propellant material is arranged within the product chamber such that a liquid phase portion of the propellant material is mixed with the acoustic texture material, and a gas phase portion of the propellant material pressurizes the acoustic texture material within the product chamber. The propellant material may be di-methyl ethylene.
Abstract:
Aerosol material for applying a repair coat to an uncoated portion of a substrate substantially to match a coated portion of the substrate using an aerosol assembly comprises a container defining a product chamber and a valve assembly operable in open and closed modes, the aerosol material comprises a base portion, a particulate portion, and a propellant portion. The particulate portion is made of at least one of urethane foam and melamine foam. With the valve assembly in the open mode, the propellant portion in the gas state gas state forces at least part of the base portion, the particulate portion, and the propellant portion in the liquid state out of the product chamber and onto the uncoated portion of the substrate to form the repair coat such that the repair coat substantially matches the coated portion of the substrate.

Abstract:
An aerosol texturing system for applying a layer of texture material on an uncoated portion of a substrate substantially to match a coated portion of the substrate. The aerosol texturing system comprises an aerosol assembly, texture material, and bi-phase propellant material. The texture material comprises a base portion and a particulate portion, where the particulate portion is made of at least one of urethane foam and melamine foam. The propellant material acts on the texture material to force the texture material out of the aerosol assembly onto the uncoated portion of the substrate such that the layer of texture material on the uncoated portion of the substrate substantially matches the portion of the substrate coated with stucco material.
Abstract:
A texture material formulated substantially to match a pre-existing texture pattern. The texture material comprises a carrier, a binder, a filler, and a pH change material. The texture material changes from a wet form to a solidified form when exposed to air. A pH of the texture material changes as the texture material changes from the wet form to the solidified form. An appearance of at least one appearance characteristic of the at least one material forming the pH change material changes as the pH of the texture material changes. An appearance characteristic of the texture material associated with the at least one material forming the pH change material in at least one of the wet form and the solidified form differs from a similar appearance characteristic of the pre-existing texture pattern.
Abstract:
A composition for forming a textured coating on drywall material, comprising acoustic texture material and propellant material. The acoustic texture material comprises a base portion and a particulate portion, where the particulate portion comprises at least one of urethane foam and melamine foam. The propellant material is at least one of DME and a hydrocarbon propellant.
Abstract:
A tensioning device for applying tension to a line extending between first and second objects. The tensioning device comprises a first engaging portion, a support surface, and first and second gripping portions defining a gripping notch. The first engaging portion is adapted to be connected to the first object. The support surface is adapted to support the line. The gripping notch is located adjacent to the support surface. The support surface supports the line to define a first line portion extending in a first direction, a second line portion in contact with the support surface, and a third line portion extending in a second direction. The third line portion is adapted to support the second object. The first line portion is pulled to place the line under tension. The gripping notch is arranged to engage the first line portion to inhibit movement of the line relative to the support surface.
Abstract:
An aerosol texturing system for forming a textured surface on drywall material. The aerosol texturing system comprises an aerosol assembly defining a product chamber and acoustic texture material and propellant material disposed within the product chamber. The aerosol assembly is selectively operable in a first mode in which the product chamber is sealed and in a second mode in which fluid is allowed to flow out of the product chamber along a dispensing passageway. The acoustic texture material comprises a base portion and a particulate portion. The particulate portion comprises at least one particulate material selected from the group consisting of urethane foam and melamine foam. At least a portion of the propellant material exists in a gaseous state such that, when the aerosol assembly is in the second mode, the propellant material forces the acoustic texture material out of the aerosol assembly along the dispensing passageway.
