Popcorn ceiling removal

[FEETDOWN]

I think it was Feetdown, but that sounds a bit harsh. If I had to scrape a popcorn ceiling, it probably wouldn't be harsh enough...

I did not invent popcorn ceilings good sir. I do, however, recall making a post about their removal. I did the spray, drywall scraper and vacuum trick and it worked to perfection. Way easier than I thought.....

I love popcorn ceiling removal. It pays damn good money.

Oh and for those of you scraping that crap off, they make 1/4” drywall for a reason.

Yeah but the problem is quarter inch sheetrock is twice the price of half inch sheetrock

The trick to taking it off is spraying it with water then using a wide sheetrock knife and walking under it with a trash can. Easy money

My buddy let me borrow this contraption that he had. You hang a bag on the bottom and put it on a broomstick. Made it really easy and not messy. Looked like this.

I thought it more trouble than it's worth.

I scraped off the whole house. The reason i didnt use 1/4" sheet rock is i cant finish sheet rock worth a damn so it was easier to scrape it off. Sprayed it with water and let soak it came right off but still a mess. There is usually some shitty sheet rock under the popcorn so you still have some patch work

I like the popcorn that has glitter in it. Classy and timeless.

Easier than it seems...
