POPCORN

 I have some expert advice for you if you are going to Remove your Popcorn Ceiling. You can go watch videos on You Tube on the process there are many. 

Please read  ALL the advice before you do or buy  ANYTHING !!

Materials that you will need to gather  - if you don't have these - on hand do not buy them just yet .

- Enough  Plastic sheeting to cover walls, and floors cause this is gonna be a mess.

- A Pump Sprayer - one gallon size is fine as you will need to keep the water you are using warm. and it will be easier to hold a 1/2 gallon of water then 2 gallons.

- A metal  scraper  or drywall knife.  Nearly any size. 4 inch wide to 8 inch wide... you will need to round the corners of this so it does not dig into the Ceiling.  Taping this to a Wet Vac tool might work for you if the hose is long enough to each from the Floor to the Ceiling easily .

- A ladder to reach the Ceiling easily.

- A large Garbage bag or Trash can that will fit the Plastic Sheeting,,, and maybe some of the tools that you do not want to clean. 

The Key to my version of this process if BEFORE you do ANYTHING -   Go into the Room that are going to be working in   . Look up at the Ceiling.  and Say these words:

"F&%^ This ! Popcorn ceiling ain't so Bad"

 IF you bought the materials and do not have another  use for them - Get out that Trash Bag , put them inside and Discard them before you change your mind !!  Now - look on  Barnes and Noble and Amazon for any books about "Loving your Popcorn Ceiling" .
