Where can I buy or how can I turn emulsion into paint with a textured finish to use on imperfect surfaces ?

Hi Purd. I think you can buy textured paint from DIY shops. There is a paint called 'Ceiling Paint' which is thicker than normal paint and designed to cover cracks and imperfections. That would probably work well. For a small area you can mix emulsion with a powder that you would normally mix with water to fill holes. Hope this helps, Smile

Dulux do a range called Natures Touch (or something like that) - it's a fine texture which comes in nice shades - good for imperfect walls - and it can be covered up with a couple of coats of emulsion when you have had enough of it - not like Artex which is horrendous to remove.
