There’s something about a paint job that is as smooth as glass, but has the 3D textures that jump out at you. People are enamored by the pebble base, where it looks like the paint was sprayed over tiny rocks. This is how the pros do it for a custom paint pebble texture.
Step by Step to Custom Paint Pebble Texture
Step 1
- Grab primer/sealer under reduce it so that it is a bit thicker
- Dial the air pressure back so that it’s just spitting the under-reduced primer out
- Spray your texture
Step 2
- After you get the desired texture, shoot your white basecoat (or basecoat color of your choice) over top to coverage
Step 3
- Spray 2-3 coats of pearl over top
Step 4
- Spray clear over top to lock it all down
- Be sure to spray a couple coats extra in order to bury the high spots
Step 5
- Wet sand with varying grits
- Buff out to a glassy finish
This is just how easy it is to custom paint pebble texture. Now that you know how to, you’ll be using this technique on everything.
