RXM Texture Coat
The RXM Texture coat is a durable and decorative interior acrylic
latex coating. The texture coat can be applied to drywall, plaster,
wood, cement block, masonite, tile and metal. Note: rough surfaces
may need to be primed and skim coated to achieve a smooth surface
before the application of the RXM texture coat. RXM Texture coat
is formulated using modern acrylic chemistry and contains no clay,
plaster, or cement compounds. It remains flexible when cured making
it resistant to cracking.
RECOMMENDED USES
RXM Texture coat is a spray applied coating for interior walls or
ceilings. This coating is designed to replace paint or wallpaper.

SURFACE PREPARATION
Surfaces to be coated must be clean dry and free of wax, grease,
dust, mildew, water soluble materials, and scaling paint. Glossy
areas should be dulled. New plaster or masonry surfaces must be
allowed to cure (30-60days) before coating. All masonry surfaces
must be thoroughly brushed with stiff fiber bristles to remove loose
particles. TM Pratt offers a number of specialty primers for use
over difficult substrates such as bleeding woods, hard glossy surfaces,
galvanized metal, or other substrates where paint adhesion or stain
suppression is a particular problem. Contact the company for options.
PRIMER/FINISH SYSTEMS
Depending on substrate conditions and finish look desired, there
are many options. See the company’s installation manual or
marketing materials for more details.
APPLICATION
RXM Texture coat is installed by commercial painting contractors
that have been trained in the application of the company’s
