What is skim coating?

• <div><p>Skim coating is when you apply a thin layer of drywall compound to textured walls, creating a smooth surface. This can be done for relatively little money—<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-to-skim-coat-drywall.htm">skim coating costs</a> an average of $600—and can be a simpler way to smooth a wall versus removing texture. Since you apply the skim coat directly on the texture, it is a faster process than removing the underlying texture altogether. </p></div>
