To solve AMT254 mystery of the continuing existence of Artex, Pete has written in to say:
My dad works for Artex, and I can reveal that one of their biggest sellers is a sort of plaster stuff for covering up horrible Artex.
Makes you wonder if that’s what they had in mind all along.
I can accept that conspiracy theory far easier than I could accept the notion that there are still people out there who actually wish to smear Artex all over their interiors. Of their houses, I mean. What you people do with your own bodies is none of my damn business.

To answer your question from the podcast, the reason people still do artex is that it is a hell of a lot easier than re-plastering the ceiling, and hides a multitude of sins.
