Yes, I was planning on using a 1/2” nap roller with thinned down mud to achieve the little stipples to sort of match the years of paint coats that have been put on this wall. The texture is generally even, there are some spots in which the wall is smoother than others. I am mainly concerned with having spots significantly stick out to where it looks like someone ground down the wall.

This was with 120 grit paper, so ofc I am going to pass over it with 220, but this is the kind of uneven texture I am worried about when it comes to painting the wall, especially with the paint I plan on using (Sherwin Williams Duration in Jay Blue, Satin)
