Abstract:
1. A system for coating a target surface in a desired texture pattern that substantially matches a preexisting texture pattern on the target surface, comprising: texture material; a bottle for containing the texture material; a spray pump assembly comprising a resilient member supported by the pump housing to define an outlet opening; and a collar member supported by the pump housing such that the collar member is movable relative to the resilient member; whereby the resilient member is normally in an undeformed configuration in which the outlet opening defines a first cross-sectional area; moving the collar member relative to the pump housing causes the collar member to act on the resilient member to deform the resilient member from the undeformed configuration to a deformed configuration in which the outlet opening defines a second cross-sectional area, where the second cross-sectional area is greater than the first cross-sectional area; and displacing the actuator member forces the texture material through the dip tube, out of the bottle member, through the outlet opening, and onto the target surface such that the texture material dries to form a coating in the desired texture pattern.
