Anyone spray light texture over 1980's orange peel?

[Marian Smith]

Anyone ever use one of those hopper guns that you attach to a compressor to lightly retexture over old orange peel ( light small blobs)? The texture isn't bad enough to skim coat, the whole house. I want to texture match my repairs--moved a window added a wall-- and then do o light coat all over to kind of blend it in and resurface 30 years of used wall in the rest of the house,

Ever done it? I like the texture now, it just seems if I have the equipment I aught to "dust" the rest of the house with texture to make the walls look newer. My husband will do it and he's pretty good at that kind of stuff.

Did you prime first? Is there a material that doesn't have to be primed afterwards? Or mix primer with the all purpose compound? Thanks.
