How To Remove Accoustic (Popcorn) From Your Ceilings Once And For All
by Donald Thomas
When I first started out in the home improvement business way back in 1984, Ronald Reagan was president, Boy George was making hits, Chevrolet's Z-28 and Rally Sport was in style and so was acoustic (popcorn)ceilings. People just loved it and sometimes those acoustic ceilings would be sprayed with silver and gold looking glitter at the homeowners' request. It was the craze all across the nation.
That was almost a quarter of a century ago and times and styles have certainly changed since then. Ronald Reagan is no longer with us and Chevrolet no longer makes Camaros, Boy George is now an afterthought and acoustic (popcorn) ceilings are viewed more as a curse than a craze.
Yes, times have certainly changed and for the better many would think. And when it comes to home improvement a lot of great changes have taken place and new exciting innovative changes have been implemented. Thanks to the ever changing technology that has made life so much better for us all...at least that's certainly how I feel about it.
But unfortunately there are some artifacts that still linger on with us today and some are down right troubling to say the least. I have gotten many calls from irate homeowners who were just about to explode because of the condition of the ceilings in their home. Popcorn ceilings that have not aged gracefully and looks terrible are the scorn of many desperate homeowners.
White ceilings that have turned to a faded out maze color with dirt and insect bile stuck on it, and if that is not enough to ruin your day you look up again only to witness that much of it has already fallen to the floor, leaving empty patches that reveal even more dirt and stains. It's enough to make you want to scream. But don't, I'm going to instruct you on how to remove all that stuff from your ceilings once and for all. And the great part about it all is that it is something most homeowners can do themselves. All you need is the right information and the desire to get it done. So let's get started.
I have been spraying on and removing acoustics/popcorn since 1984 and I have gained some valuable knowledge.
