Paint that helps diffuse sound?


A recent article in the Wall Street Journal about a doctor that built a new $3 million dollar house to house his own organ, indicated he used a specialty wall paint to to help diffuse sound. Anyone done the same?

A rough surface will diffuse the sound. Sound will travel along a smooth wall and a hardwood floor, like a wing it will sail. You can mix your own paint. You just need to know what to add. Tom
I do this inside speaker cabinets and works well. Only thing stopping me from applying the same formula to my dedicated room's wall is my bride. It was built to be my space but over the years that distinction became blended. Tom
