Abstract
A hardenable texture material is disclosed for application to a patch surface surrounded by a stucco-like material having an irregular surface texture to form a layer of textured patch material on the patch surface, wherein the hardenable texture material is storable in a pressurized fluid-tight aerosol dispensing container. The hardenable texture material includes a liquid base and a stucco filler substance having large particulates resembling stucco. An aerosol system with a spray nozzle is included on the container for selective discharge of the hardenable texture material onto a prepared patch area so as to match and blend with the surrounding stucco-covered surface area in order to provide a continuous and unbroken coextensive surface texture of mechanically and visually matched material.
