ALKA Acrylic Texture Coating
1-Component, water-based acrylic texture coating SystemAlka Acrylic Texture Coating is a decorative and protective wall or ceiling finish made from acrylic-based resins combined with aggregates such as sand or fine particles to create a textured surface. It is applied to both interior and exterior surfaces to enhance appearance, hide minor imperfections, and provide long-lasting protection.
Key Features
• Decorative finish – Creates various textures and patterns, from subtle to heavily textured effects.
• Durability – Resists cracking, peeling, and weathering better than many traditional coatings.
• Flexibility – Acrylic resins allow the coating to expand and contract with building movement, reducing cracks.
• Water resistance – Helps protect surfaces from moisture penetration while remaining breathable.
• UV resistance – Maintains colour and appearance when exposed to sunlight.
• Low maintenance – Easy to clean and generally requires less frequent repainting.
Where it could be used.
– Exterior walls and facades
– Interior feature walls
– Concrete, masonry, brick, and rendered surfaces
– Commercial, residential, and industrial buildings
Benefits
Acrylic texture coatings improve aesthetics, conceal surface defects, increase weather protection, and can extend the lifespan of building surfaces. They are commonly used where both decorative appeal and surface durability are desired.

Surface Preparation
Use our Primer if you are painting over bare plasterboard, masonry, render, cement sheet, brick, MDF, and interior timber.
Remove all dirt, dust, and grease from the bare surface. If some mould or fungus is present on the surface, wash it with a commercially available bleaching agent and then treat with antifungal solution.
Fill cracks and imperfections with a suitable filler and spot prime.
All previously painted surfaces should be sanded to remove loose/flaking paint and to reduce the previous film to a flat finish.
Application
Brush, Roller, or Spray. Stir the contents thoroughly before and during use. Apply one or two uniform coats with light sanding in between using 220-grit sandpaper.
Dust off and follow with two finish coats. Care must be taken to maintain the wet edge when rolling large surfaces. When applying by spray application, back roll when wet to eliminate plaster set joint, smooth setting. Do not overroll as glancing light may affect the finished surface.
Thinning
Depending on the situation, you can mix 5% to max of 10%s water for easier application.
