Hi there William. I have actually on my channel a video demonstrating how to make the swirl pattern using STIPPLE BRUSH - link below ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EXo2LPflqHk.html

Prior to any kind of work, you may need to check the texture does not contain asbestos as tampering may create dust particles to loosen and become breathed in. There are specialists dealing with this task, and home kits. Let me know how you get on. Thanks for commenting

Hi. One must make sure the compound does not contain asbestos, as the material should not be disturbed by scraping etc, as this will release dangerous fibres. There is a test at home kit to check for any asbestos present. This is the first step. Hope this helps, thanks for commenting

Hi. This is called a 'stipple brush' used for ceiling/wall texturing. And available on Ebay (UK seller)

Possibly Sta. With a little preparation first, of course. Thanks for commenting, have a great day

Hi Darren I take that this would be a stipple pattern... What we used to do was when there was a ultra spikey stipple we had to paint, we would first run the back end of a sweeping brush over the ceiling gently This would normally smash off those pesky spikes, leaving less mess in the roller Good luck Comment here let me know how you get on Have a great day

Actually Pontiac Geek as far as I know the method of texturing using a toothed tool was created in the UK (which went on to be known as ARTEXING - due to a company making Artex texture material). A plaster'r applied plaster to a wall and used a metal toothed trowel and drew it through the plaster, creating kind of a messy and random half fan pattern. There was a sample in Cardiff I spotted in the backroom of a shop and the door was open. Amazed, I inquired This was way back in 1987. The shop was owned by a mature couple selling toys there, in Cowbridge Rd East, Canton. The owners were delighted in telling me they payed the guy to do this instead of the popular flat finish. He told me the job was carried out in 1947. Of course, in them day, others came they saw and then wanted a textured finish... In 1974 Texturing combs (known as ARTEXING COMBS) were born Texture material was available in many DIY shops, and a variety began to rise Creating ceiling / wall texturing stormed the UK's ceilings and walls You could say, almost everyone wanted 3 dimensional, textured finish Around Cardiff (and the UK) there were the very few real masters at work These guys were EPIC Their perfect and ornamental finish recommended their future jobs These masters would not even let a customer view how they performed their superior finishes Shut the door. Do the job. Clean up. Let customer enter only then Unfortunately there were many wanabees too which showed in their finishes It was not their fault, they saw an opportunity and wanted to learn And the only way to do this was to practice, and practice, and last but not least, practice Before even contemplating advertising their work. Some folk were blessed to learn one on one with a master texture practitioner Some folk learned practicing for months on their own ceilings and walls I just like to add, because of the non-learning opportunity, this channel is dedicated to showing the methods where the texture person could practice at home and become highly familiar with the entire process of creative texturing. vanlok's Documental thanks for commenting.

Well sh$t. I knew there was something wrong. Thanks for commenting have a great day
