I’m with you. I hate shitty contractor special wall texture. The first thing I did in my new house was the long slow process of Venetian plastering the walls to a smooth matte finish. I would never put the effort into a rental. I think hanging fabric or peal and stick panels would be the move

Can you share how you did the plastering? What product? Thx

I used a us based company called Vasari plaster. marmorino is the fine grade which I like the best and I used mainly plastic trowels to produce a flat matte look. For heavily textured walls I did a coat of the mediaum grade and followed up with the fine.

It takes a long time but I dig the look so much that I don’t care. I will eventually have most of my house plastered.
