A nozzle includes an inlet end having one or more inlet apertures and an outlet end having one or more outlet apertures. The nozzle includes a body member that extends between the inlet end and the outlet end. In some embodiments, the nozzle includes a central member that extends centrally through the body member. The nozzle includes an end member fixedly coupled with the central member at the outlet end. The nozzle includes a slidable member translatably coupled with the central member. The slidable member is configured to direct fluid that flows through the body member outwards towards an inner surface of the body member and translation of the slidable member adjusts a K-factor of the nozzle.

Described herein is a texture material dispensing system. The system includes a container assembly, an actuator assembly, and an outlet assembly. The container assembly includes a container and a valve assembly. The actuator assembly includes a trigger actuator pivotably attached to an actuator housing. The outlet assembly includes a flexible tube fluidically connected to the trigger actuator and an adjustable outlet opening. The adjustable outlet opening is adjustable between a position that is aligned substantially parallel to a container assembly axis and a position that is aligned substantially non-parallel to a container assembly axis. Also described herein is a method of using the texture material dispensing system for dispensing a texture material onto a target surface.

According to some illustrative embodiments, an angularly adjustable spray nozzle is employed that includes: a base section having a water flow path extending lengthwise there-through; a head section aligned at an end of the base section and rotatably mounted to the base section; wherein a flow path through the base section is inclined at an angle to a flow path through the head section such that when the head section is rotated a predetermined extent relative to the base section, the spray device is moved between a substantially straight configuration of the head section with respect to the base section and an angular configuration of the head section with respect to the base section; wherein the head section includes a rotatable turret assembly having a plurality of selectable spray type discharge ports and a sleeve to which the rotatable turret assembly is mounted, the rotatable turret assembly including labels on a periphery thereof corresponding to respective ones of the selectable spray type discharge ports, and the sleeve having a plurality of windows through which the labels are viewed when aligned; and wherein the spray device is configured such that when the spray device is oriented in a generally horizontal use position a respective one of the labels corresponding to a selected spray type is displayed within a respective one of the windows that is located at a top side of the sleeve whether the spray device is in the substantially straight configuration or in the angular configuration.
