You may have a texture that would be perfect, if only the darks were lights and the lights were darks. Why should that even matter? Well, the dark and light areas define the “bumps” and “crevices” that compose your texture. Use Invert to switch them. You can immediately see the effect in the Brush Properties preview.

In the example above, the same texture was used, it was just inverted.
