About this asset

This 2K PBR decal texture features a monochromatic black and white painted smear effect, designed for realistic surface detailing. This PBR decal features a high-contrast black and white smear pattern, capturing the organic, directional motion of a brush or tool stroke. The texture conveys a sense of depth through its varied opacity and directional striations, making it suitable for representing paint, grime, or industrial residue. The 2K resolution ensures that the fine details of the strokes remain crisp when applied to surfaces, while the inherent tonal variations provide a convincing weathered appearance. It is a versatile asset for simulating realistic wear and tear across various architectural materials and interior finishes.

The download is a 17 MB compressed archive with the texture set at 2K with colour, normal and roughness maps, ready for any metal/roughness PBR workflow in Blender, 3ds Max, SketchUp, Unreal Engine or D5.

Incorporate this PBR decal into your rendering workflow by layering it over existing base materials using an alpha mask or opacity channel. Adjust the scale and rotation within your software to align the directional strokes with the intended surface geometry. For optimal results, utilize the provided normal and roughness maps to enhance the physical interaction with light, ensuring the smear effect integrates seamlessly with the underlying material properties and environmental reflections.

Apply this smear decal to walls, floors, or industrial equipment to introduce authentic surface imperfections in architectural visualisations. It is particularly effective for aged, industrial, or minimalist environments where subtle signs of use are required to break up clean surfaces. Use it to enhance realism in hospitality or residential projects, pairing it with concrete, metal, or painted wood textures. Search for this asset when needing to add grit, grime, or artistic texture overlays to your 3D scenes and render environments.
