| We are painting a room and the walls are pretty rough.
We have sanded, primed etc but want to use a really think nap roller and thick paint if possible. Who do you people think has the thickest paint? TIA |

| Thick paint will not fix the problem |
|
| Call in a painter and have him skimcoat the walls, sand, and re-prime. |
|
| Graywings, Thanks for a helpful answer. |
|
| Graywings is correct. If the walls are that rough have them skimcoated. Use a flat or matte paint for best hide. |
|
| Yeah.... No paint on this earth will do what you want in this case! Wall-texture profiles can only be filled Joint-Compound or Plaster, sanded, and re-primed/painted. Not surprisingly, most of the cost is labor. Actual materials cost (not incl. paint) MIGHT be $100! Faron |

| Ceiling paint is the thickest paint made for the house! |

| eriepatch - The thickness of the paint is not a factor. Thinner paint will go in the holes of the texture better. |
