    I'm in the middle of this job. I tried citristrip ($10 can), ez strip($54 gallon) and this method.
    Vinegar and hot water works significantly better than the commercial products!
    For the price of a gallon of ez strip you can buy your scrapers, spray bottle, big bag of .7 mil tarps and probably a step ladder, or beer for when you're done.
    Thanks for the help

    My home was invaded by homeless criminals while I was getting chemo out of town. They defecated in bags and stacked them up in corners causing the home to be infested by flies which caused a brown layer to cover the popcorn ceiling in those areas.
    I was told to use diluted pool chlorine which almost killed me from the gases and burned my skin .
    I gave up and got quotes for a pro. It was $4000!! So it sat I moved out too sick to deal with it.
    I decided to sell my home and move on and start a new life I needed to try again and I saw your video. Bless you!!!!
    BI cannot believe this worked and I had no breathing issues or burning skin. It is unbelievable it works.
    I got a deep square garbage lid and tried the area over some cabinets (being doubtful.) I cannot believe it works. I still need to pay someone to help me but a handyman at $25 hr and I got this whole (25x33') room done in 2 hrs under $80!
    Thank you so much. I'm going to do all of the house eventually now that I know how easy and well it works.
    You are amazing.
    I subscribed knowing I'll learn much. 👍

    And what are the next steps? Primer and hole filling (in that order) and then paint?

      mybestideas1 I am not a fan of the shop vac at all. The hose gets completely blocked with the wet sludgy popcorn. The garbage can lid works super easy. The shop vac doesn’t catch nearly what the lid does.

      @michaeljanetis  5 лет назад +1

      Herman Ripps my ceiling was a semi gloss. The vinegar worked well. I also made the water as hot as possible. There were multiple places I had to scrape twice. The first scrape will provide openings to the Sheetrock at that point adding a second coat of spray allows it to permeate through. Be careful not to get too overly aggressive with the soaking and scraping lest you damage the drywall in some spaces. Hope it works for you as well as it did for me.

    If your home is 1980s or older, your popcorn ceiling likely contains asbestos. Either test for it first or assume the worst and get a HEPA filter mask before scraping. Stay safe, DIY-ers.

    What happens when the vinegar spray gets on the walls and the paint on the walls and starts to leave marks there

    Does this work on semi gloss painted popcorn?

    • @michaeljanetis
      @michaeljanetis  5 лет назад

      Dan Borud I’ve used this technique on semi gloss. It is a bear. The best way to do it is if you decide to tackle it is scrap the ceiling first to knock it down. The solution can penetrate the paint better upon knocking it down. I would suggest adding 50% white vinegar to the hot water. The vinegar is an acid so it will eat the paint. I had a couple of ceilings I’ve done that were semi gloss and it is definitely more of a challenge than this video. I hope you have success. You might want to do a test area in a corner or a closet.

      You're going to most likely do a texture coat and or prime and paint....so that will eliminate any of the vinegar odor!

    • @michaeljanetis

      I don’t think it would work. Wall texture is solid join compound. That would be a challenge. The walls might need to be skimmed.

    I have read that the vinegar will make your paint that you apply peel.

    • @michaeljanetis
      @michaeljanetis  4 года назад

      michele mckune I didn’t have any issue with that! I think those who had issues did not wipe down the final dust off of the ceiling before painting. If there is a layer of dust the paint will not adhere properly. We didn’t have any issues with that at all. I’ve helped a number of people and haven’t had any issues with theirs either. Hope that helps.

    Test stipple ceiling material in advance.
    Take a small sample and send it in for Asbestos testing.
    If test is positive, you cannot remove stipple yourself.
    A company that specifically deals with approved Asbestos removal must be called in.
    If test is negative, then you can do the job yourself.
