- geni.us/antiq50... - Repair / Cover your popcorn ceiling in a few hours with decorative ceiling Tiles. They're light, sound absorbing and insulating. Can be painted and fire rated glue up tiles. No messy popcorn removal, avoid scraping and freshen up your house in hours on a budget. Don't cover ceilings with asbestos, if you're not sure, call a professional to diagnose your situation. I recommend painting this with fire rated paint as well by spraying it when glued. For washrooms use the PVC celluse tiles as they are better for moisture areas.

I put similar ceiling tiles in my bedroom to cover the yellowed probably-asbestos popcorn, however I found that the tiles weren't quite square so I had a gap on pretty much every tile that had to be caulked. It's awkward to work overhead for long periods of time, so I'd recommend a tall enough ladder that you can reach the ceiling comfortably. It also goes much faster if you can have someone apply the glue and hand you the tiles - less up & down the ladder.
100 percent agree. Caulking is definitely recommended and so is painting
Three questions: You showed a can of Behr paint, but didn’t mention when the tiles were painted. Was the painting done prior to installing the tiles? 2.) Why do you recommend painting the tiles? 3.) If I paint the tiles, would I still need to caulk the seams, as the paint would perhaps fill in the lines?
Hey, at 15:41, to mark the hole before you cut it, I would use my wife's old red lipstick, and color the hole's edge in the ceiling and then press the tile in place. Then remove the tile and on the back will be the red circle to cut out. I did that when marking where to drill for a deadbolt in the door jamb...just color the deadbolt, then crank it against the jamb to leave a mark, then paddle drill the hole out...easy peezy.
good call!
Why not just measure in from the 2 adjoining new tiles to locate the hole for the new tile?
@@nevillenewman2785 You can certainly measure, but if you just color the edge ofthe circle for an example, then press the tile into the circle , you will have made a perfect impression of where the precise strike is as it will leave a red circle.Then hurry, and shovethe lipstick ack in your wife's purse before she notices it gone.
We just bought a house with popcorn and have been trying to figure out solutions. This is such an awesome idea. Great video and thanks for putting this up!
Happy to help
Some of these comments are awful. I thought it came out good and thought you did a great job. It helped me - thanks for sharing.
Glad it was helpful! Trolls will be trolls...
Thank you for your honesty. Buyer beware - for a quick easy fix someone did a cover-up. One man's greed is another man's problem. Nice guy..
I didn't think it was going to look good but it actually did and you if you had told me I would never guessed it was a styrofoam ceiling
Watch my updated videos, I've done a lot of these installations and people love them. All the haters in the comments claiming this is a fire hazard, insurance company approved it and it is fire rated, but you can paint it with fire paint as well if you really want to.
Wow...so happy I stumbled on to this video...PERFECT FIX....thanks!!
Thanks for tour comment do take extra time in caulking and paint it
I love these ceiling tiles. A lot of design options. So many results I have seen have been stunning.
Thanks for your comment david, just make sure you take extra time in painting and caulking, I painted these after this video. Look even better
you can also glue 6 tiles into a box for a cooler. Many diverse applications here
I haven't gone thru all the comments, I imagine all the negative comments are from ceiling installers. YOu certainly have put them out of a job... Oh well, I'm no millionaire, I'm a DYI guy. I look forward to finding the right style to fit my townhouse. Thanks dude.
The comments are amusing thus far. You can tell not to many people are DIY ers or they would already know that #1 this is a perfectly legitimate fix #2 no the tiles don't fall down...the adhesive is way heavier than the tile #3 I am guessing that everyone with fire concerns also has a mattress and furniture free home as those will kill you long before your ceiling comes down. I know all of this because I installed this by myself in my last home with bronze colored tiles. Everyone actually thought it was real even though the ceilings were not that high. Changes to this installation - I would just buy the tile in the color I wanted and would not want to paint them after. And thus would spray paint all my seams before laying the tile to the matching finished color of ceiling to eliminate touch-ups.
I gonna do this...however, my living room is 20 x 40 and is A-frame style....should be fun! Thanks so much for sharing your experience!
This is my current situation 😩
I am definitely worried about asbestos in my house, the old floor had it for sure. But what a great idea to cover it! I am not looking to sell, just improve the terrible ceilings in our home. I’ll definitely be looking into this.
Does everyone in America have asbestos in their houses LOL?
I love this concept. With a hard plastic alternative I would totally do this!!!
You can get hard plastic vinyl but it's twice as expensive and much more difficult to glue
Thank you for the video! It was detailed and informative and is a nice, easy and affordable option for people looking to get away from ugly popcorn ceiling. I would definitely use this in a space with little risk of fire like a small bathroom and I imagine it would hold up nicely to high moisture and steam. I appreciate your time in making this video!
Thanks for positive feedback. They've held up perfectly over the years now. If you're putting these in bathroom I recommend you paint with paint.
Thank you 😊 🙏 very helpful 😊
Actually I removed my popcorn ceiling over the stairway and replaced it with venetian plaster. removing the popcorn wasnt hard, but it was messy. On the other hand, the plastering was labor intensive, but seeing the light interplay with the polished and waxed ceiling is rewarding. I will get this material because I can paint it to resemble metallic tin, wood, marble, or broken color finish - even stencils. (I'm an accomplished decorative painter.).
Thx for your comment, It was spray painted a month later with intumesent paint. Looks way better.
Next time try mixing vinegar and water in a pesticide sprayer...take the 10 minutes to protect the walls / floor with plastic...spray the popcorn down and it will scrape off SO EASILY. The popcorn will reactive like the day it was sprayed on...zero dust. My wife and I removed 2300 sq ft and cleaned up the entire mess in under 3 hours at our home. I spent a few hours skim coating imperfections, sanding....then we painted them twice. I'm a painting contractor, always nice to test something out on your own home first. I've completed approx 10 popcorn removal jobs since then. Everyone is amazed at how easy I get the popcorn off.
WOW I love this! Thank you for sharing.
Happy to help. Its really amazing products
This video reminded me about the story of the 3 Little Pigs. I'd be safer in a house built with sturdy material. I don't know about all these easy shortcuts. I get it, no one minds saving on big house projects but if I had a million dollar home, I wouldn't mind investing in it some more especially in a central air conditioning system, not like the unit hanging off the window.
What? You dont want to use duct tape and Styrofoam? I cant believe this is even real for a million dollar house. Was this video posted on April 1st?
This is a joke right... A two story $1.4 executive suite with Styrofoam ceiling and a AC unit hanging out the window…seriously!? Dude your reputation as a realtor is on the line. Have some pride and put quality products in place valued at that level. Save this stuff for your lower end flips. You would feel ripped off if you bought a luxury car only to find out down the road that it mini van engine in it and generic radio with a Bose face plate slap on the front. You didn’t address the reason those stains were occurring on the sealing, just simply covered them up…smh Makes people wonder what else is being masked to look pretty.
Hey Todd, I am not a realtor, never have been. Unfortunately this is an average price of a house in Toronto area. You'd be surprised what people buy for a million dollars in our area. Do a google search. This is a product developed and sold in big box stores, it'a applied in restaurants, offices and business buildings, it's called FAUX, it's everywhere including outside. Stucco is styrofoam painted.
@@InvestorTheory This is exactly the solution to upgrade my 10x10 inch ceiling tiles instead of painting the ceiling in my cottage. I'll be in touch soon with an order.
Hood to know that the area you are from has idiots paying way to much for homes with cheap fixes and cheap products covering very questionable things. And people wonder why I don't trust anyone. As the poster said use better quality materials and fix the issues, and please stop saying it's what everyone does in my area that's like saying I'm donna nose dive off the side of a mountain because everyone does it. I always knew that stupid statement my father would say to me as a kid would come in handy at some point.
@@InvestorTheory You mention its an executive home and one of your higher end home that will take some time to sale... so I guess everyone lives in a executive home in Toronto. You mentioned this is used everywhere and its because its the cheapest way to go but also means its the lowest quality and something that it isnt going to last. Its only a quick fix that will have issues down the road.
@@butterflyforeve but i would nose dive off the side of a mountain if every investor did it.
I thought this type of tile wasn't supposed to be applied to an uneven surface such as popcorn ceilings? Is this just for staging or is it a permanent solution when done this way?
I like the idea of tiling over a popcorn ceiling, but NOT with Styrofoam! Even if it's supposed to be flame-retardant, it's like having a layer of napalm hanging over you. In a fire, you'll have molten plastic dripping on your head as you try to escape, and if the room flashes over, even "fireproofed" plastic will burn like gasoline. It's better to use the mineral wool tiles that are fireproof and reasonably priced.
Thanks for the comment:) however consider that your curtains and furniture has a higher chance of getting caught on fire.
Thanks for saying this. I am looking for solutions for our popcorn ceiling and never heard of mineral wool. Will be looking into it now!
Completely brighter! Wow. Thank you, great idea!
You are so welcome!
the cost is no more than just having it removed and textured, a 13x16 ft room at 3.29 is 648.00 not counting the install if you do it yourself it's about the same as getting the popcorn removed and done
Depending on where you live, and whether it has asbestos. I called a professional painter about just painting my yellowed popcorn ceiling and the quote was $1200 Cdn for 2 small rooms. To remove it is $85/hour and a huge mess. I was able to install this myself in the one room for about $400 and it looks much better than just painting the popcorn.
excellent idea!
Paint this and show us the after plz! would love to see the final results
I went to two different paint shops. They looked at me like I was some kind of nut case when I said that I wanted paint best suited for styrofoam ceiling tiles.
If you are buying and selling houses and fixing them up having a chalk line should be in your toolbox. I don't do any of those things and own a chalk liner, they are pretty cheap and super handy for a lot of things.
I'm surprised a $1m home has a window a/c. The ceiling tiles came out great. It gives the room character
Hmm, this video takes a while to get to the point... you tubers don't fall in love with the sound of your voice. Makes for long boring videos
Gotta get in the ads to make money...lol
I beg to differ.... 😉
Fast forward?? Watch it at 1.5x speed ?? Lol
Alisha Smith I don’t.
I completely agree. I really wish these people would just cut the shit and get to the point.
Success assumes your room is exactly square, right? Few homes are. Good luck with that!
My mom has this ALL OVER THE HOUSE and even the garage!! I am just like...really?? So trying to fix that is the issue we are having.
So doing this for one room....this is a good idea, but what about a 1250 sq home. So now I am looking for tiles that are just solid plain white and I am having a hard time...😂..my journey is just ...whew.
I've done 1500 sq feet install. It can be done. Look in description. Amazon has best prices in large packs
It looks good, but I'm not so sure how much value is added once people catch on that the ceiling tile and crown is made of styro. I would adjust my offer accordingly at best and might even dismiss making an offer because I know something is being covered up and of the uncertainty of knowing what happens if or when there's a roof or water leak somewhere. And the uncertainty of what it will look like over time. I know if cheap caulk is used it will look bad in no time and need to be recaulked or painted.
You arę right !
I just put up 1/4" drywall.
Play Safe From Elliot Lake Ontario Canada.
I agree with you by time you do all that you could of hung ceiling and ready to start finishing to each his own
I really love this technique and it's very nice and amazing. Maybe some people criticize because it is not professional but I will do in my popcorn seling. I haven't a question what glue u used for vinyl tiles and if it really will stay long time? Thanks
It's been years and looks as good as when I finished it. After this video I caulked and painted the ceiling which isnt shiwn in video. It looks incredible. Haters gonna hate
I would try a "Drywall Cut-Out Tool" for all those penetrations after your glue goes off a bit. Harbor freight around $25. After using it a bunch you would have to pry it out of your dead cold hands to take it away. Good idea--this is the kind of texturing a ceiling really needs. Make sure your caulk is paintable.
Thanks I'll consider it. This glue holds great, these tiles weigh almost nothing.
Looks fantastic! I checked out the reviews on this product from various sites - after reading all the atrocious comments on here - and all were raving!
I definitely don’t live in a million dollar home, but my husband and I are finally getting rid of the ugly popcorn ceiling in our kitchen! Great video!
It's a Great product! Haters and trolls will be trolling
Skim coating over popcorn ceilings is always another very solid option that would be much better IMO. 🤦🏼♀️
Vinegar eats through paint. Simply mix vinegar and water, protect the room with plastic...spray the popcorn and it will scrape off SO EASILY. Literally not a tough task at all.
Sean Sutton my problem with doing that is we don’t know if there’s asbestos. 😩.
@@daniellelewis60 Asbestos will damage your lungs when inhaled in large quantities. When you reactive the popcorn by wetting it down you will see virtually zero dust. a $35 3M mask is more than enough protection to remove popcorn. Those that choose to remove it "dry"...sure....those people are creating tons of asbestos particles which can be inhaled.
yes we had this in the uk in the seventy's now we are ripping them down
This was extremely helpful and looks great! Definitely subscribed!!!! 😁 also wonder if this works with plastic type tiles? I think your video is very informative and detailed for the everyday person.
I have never done ceiling tiles before, but I have done many floors. The problem when you stick new flooring over old flooring when the old floor starts to loosen or come up, then the new floor follows suit. I would imagine it would be the same as just going over the popcorn. I know it flakes off over the years, especially if you have a leak so I would think that would or could make the tiles come down also. Unless of course, you are doing this just for a quick flip. If that is a million-dollar home, I would just take the time to remove the popcorn and then put up the tiles if you want that look. Just my opinion.
Thanks for taking the time to leaveyour feedback.
I prefer videos where the home owner is not trying to sell a product but share their DIY projects with others.
No-one is trying to sell a product. This is an amazing product I reviewed and sharing with people who never heard of it, like i haven't before i found this. Getting a discount code on something is also nice. Instead of watching videos, perhaps you should consider getting some projects completed and sharing them with others.
My goodness! Why does everyone have to be so damn negative! If one doesn't like or approve, MOVE ON! SHEESH! If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all...just a thought.
@@kpasso3990 karen
Popcorn ceilings eventually flake off because 98% of them were put up without the surface being primed first. Even with your ceiling tiles, this will still happen. The glue is bonding to the popcorn ceiling and not the drywall. These panels will eventually start sagging and possibly fall off due to the extra weight you've added to the popcorn above each tile.
Thanks for your comment. I've never heard of that specific issue. These tiles will never fall off as the adhesive used dries solid.
You arę definitly right, I already had this problem with popcorn however, I drill little holes and push some Alex silikocon as a glue and as far looks good !
Great job! I love it.a lot of work.
Did they coat the styrofoam so it can be painted? I'm a painter and have never painted styrofoam. It's very porous stuff. I've painted a lot of popcorn ceilings and it is not exactly a firm surface. Sometimes just touching it can bring down chunks of it. Those tiles are glued to an unstable surface.
hey Ted, glad you asked as i ran into the same issue once or twice. The PVC or these styrofoam tiles have about 0.125" bevel to account for the popcorn, the edges is really what sticks to the popcorn ceilign. I suggest pressing and removing the larger popcorn balls to have a somewhat flat surface for the tile to adhere to, but there is some give in the foam as you apply it, so all in all goes on flat over the popcorn surfaces. Also they recommend you caulk to the joints to loose any imprefections. Painting is RECOMMENDED but i just didn't do it on the video as it would take a while to caulk and paint everything. Double the time. Because the tiles are light, there is no chance of them falling or you seeing the popcorn "bumps" over the styrofoam.
its not styrofoam, its polystyrene and meant to be painted. if you are a professional painter, you should know this
I put embossed wall paper over popcorn. Looks great. Not the fire hazard of this stuff.
Nancy Rocks I’d like to see a video of that. The pop corn ceiling at a rental property is breaking off in big pieces. Stripping it off would be difficult plus it was build before 1980 so it might have asbestos in it.
Thanks for comment, these tiles are fire rated according to talissafecor certification and sold in Canada. There is less chance of them setting on fire than curtains or other fire hazards as they are on a wall.
Way too much talking, not enough action. O.m.g. lost interest.
one of my first videos... sorry, Watch on 2x speed :)
@@InvestorTheory good effort!
OMG, I think its great
Takes courage to put yourself out there. I appreciate this video.
I've taken down my popcorn, was going to fix, patch n paint it, But, want the ceiling tiles after seeing this video.
Agreed
Is this very flammable?
The cheapest ones are, but even the flame retardant ones will smoke and melt when they get hot, and beyond a certain temperature, they'll burn like gasoline .
@@pcno2832oh my! I heard it's a fire hazard . Looks good!
I have polystyrene crown molding that I rendered to resemble wood. You can't tell by looking at time.
looking at it.
This guy just have some used car dealers in his family tree. This is a cheap and dirty coverup intended to fool the inattentive buyer.
I wish I had used dealers in my family, I'd have a better car. When buyers visit a property they ask if it's coffered ceilings, every person that has seen these at the properties I've installed and my colleagues asked if it's real, and they were more impressed that they weren't. I have installed pvc plastic tiles instead, they came out better at 3 times the price though. To each their own .
Grow up and take the pacifier out of your mouth
@@InvestorTheory Don't think I would ever ask if a coffered ceiling was real, unless of course it didn't look real.
We live in fl so I’m curious how long would you expect them to last with sunlight on them all the time? I know that tires and window seals don’t last on cars here.
Next, we install some more highly flammable, easily melted materials in our home... let down.
For sure! We already have almost all of our walls cedar. The last thing I need to add to this match box is styrofoam ceilings! 🤷♀️
Thanks for the comments Danielle Lewis if everything in your house is flammable, why would u think the tallest item would catch first? These are fire rated, moreso than the curtains or lamps that are closest to the area where a fire could start.
@@InvestorTheory
Insulation is fiberglass and beams are treated with fire-proofing. Styrofoam is literally a component of homemade napalm, with the other component being gasoline. Kids learn that at the age of 8.
It can be painted with special paint to lessen the fire hazard. I wouldn't use it in a kitchen.
@@cadenrolland5250 I have shutters on my house that are technically made of the same material. It's lighter, etc. I get it... It's mounted to brick though... If a fire gets to that, it's all over anyway. I just know how extremely hot canned lighting can get and it just blows my mind that they would put this on a ceiling. I've seen how fast it melts and burns.
I really love this technique. It's simple and very practical. I know some people criticize it because they think it's not professional, maybe, but it's looks just amazing.
I have a question what glue u used and this glue is
I used ACRYL PRO, it is a wall and flooring tile glue, home depot and most construction stores sell it, its $25 for a 5 liters, which is more than enough for 3 rooms.
Thank you so much for posting that you just solved some very big problems for me and I appreciate your posting this and all the links as well thank you and happy investing
I wanted to do my living room, dining room, all open to each other, found 1.6 x 1.6 tiles at Homedepot for $1.88 each. It would STILL cost over one thousand dollars.
don't buy from home depot...plus i dont think home depot carries the polystyrene ones... go to the links in the description, i think you were going for the pvc those you need to use drop ceilings.
They look great but would this work on stucco/textured ceilings?
Yes as long as the adhesive used sticks you're good
Is there a renter-friendly alternative to the glue method? This would ruin the popcorn when removed. Would be great to have a renter-friendly method. Looks amazing!
Yes, apply foam board first then attach tiles to board instead.
I’d ask landlord first because it’s definitely an upgrade! And they may be glad you did it
IS this really much quicker than just scraping off and repainting if doing yourself though...
Can humidity cause the tiles to fall off?
that depends on the glue you use. If you're going to have high moisture i wouldn't recommend these, just like i wouldn't put them in a washroom, rather PVC tiles.
nice video.. have a pop corn ceiling I need to get ride of , gonna check them out 🤙
wouldn't use if was flipping a house or office but a quick room refresh maybe
Wow!!! Way cool!!
Thanks
I like those Styrofoam crown moldings! Never saw those before! Don't know if I like the thin nature of these Styrofoam ceiling panels though. The product could be made thicker and sturdier. Not saying these would not work nicely, but I would prefer more SOLID Styrofoam panels -- do they make those?
I put these in a new house I built in 1988 and they still look fantastic.
Hy I like to know if I can use Acrilpro 2 set because Is not any where the I can buy your Acrylpro 2 set puse is only in Cananda, can you let me know if I can use Acrylpro 2 set is the one for USA Thank you and excellent video
Hey there, heres the glue , I recommend the big 3 gallon if you're doing a room that's 10x10 at the very least geni.us/AcrylproTileGlue
If you look closely you can see every dab of glue showing through the panels, unless you can paint styrofoam it’s not that great of product and it’s very flimsy
You took the words out of my mouth. The glue spots look cheap. Not sure if you could paint it, but it certainly needs it.
Also, how well does that amount of glue allow those panels to stick to such a rough surface? Seems like the BEST fix would be to scrape it off and do a Venetian plaster look, or textured finish. Styrofoam cup panels is just....stupid on a million dollar home.
Unlike other commenters, I appreciate this video from the DIY standpoint. Not sure I’d put it in a million filler home but then again who would put popcorn in a million dollar home, clearly the house is in a high dollar per square foot area. I had a house with popcorn that I hated, would have LOVED this product. My only feedback is the first 5 minutes is way to much talking, introduce the product and get to it, don’t spend so long telling us about it!
The house was unlikely worth a million dollars when constructed obviously.
So they specialize in material for staging apartments or homes ?
I'd like to do this in my bedroom, but the entrance to my attic is in my bedroom (pull down ladder). How would I work the tiles around that? The opening is trimmed out as well. :\
I know you are not putting styrofoam crown molding in a million dollar home??
So how much do you think sheetrock will cost you?
Yes I am - You'd be suprised how many multi-million dollar homes use styrofoam not only interior but outdoor;)
@@bigbossjc4117 Sheet rock would be about double the cost and way too much work.
@Dingus E. Dow, never heard of that, but move to Toronto and you'll see what you can buy for 1 million, a shack.
In Vegas you can buy a house twice the size brand new for 600K, toronto market is almost on par with Los Angeles, except there a million dollars would buy a somewhat new mansion, here a used house with 3 seperate floors rented by ghetto tenants. it's unfortunate that anywhere in 120km distance, families cannot afford to live, but it is what it is.
I would be a little afraid of this, because if a tile got damaged later, then what? The glue would be hell to get off the wall, even if you had extra tiles.
Isn't Styrofoam highly susceptible to high heat, i.e. can lighting?
Light bulbs are not pressed against styrofoam and recessed lighting does not get hot now with LED lighting, nothing to worry about.
This is some cool stuff because I know of the possibilities.
It's beautiful, but don't even think about it if you have heated ceilings. Don't use any tile with the fire hazard materials. It's a great way to make a home look expensive, but it could lower the value of the home.
What are heated ceilings lol
whoa why are people knocking this? faux painting derived from painting cheap materials to resemble marble and exotic woods going back to Roman times. Even the top of the Sistene Chapel was constructed with filler material in order to reduce the weight.
You forgot to add tight shirt to the necessary supplies. Lmao
Skeptical. The early shots were of a very different home. No chance that fireplace is in the same home as that ceiling he was doing. For a 1.4 million home with green mold in the ceiling and then to cover it up and not address the cause of the mold is pretty irresponsible. No chance those early shot and that ceiling were the same home.
Actually the green mold you're referring to is pl construction glue. and yes that is the same home, bit by bit reno.
Sure, ill add a video covering the upgrades in a couple weeks and I'll make a note to show the attic. That AC available if you're interested, you can pick it up and I'll show u the attic personally.
I like it, but is there a higher quality solution? Higher quality strapping and product. I'm just cringing 😬
No there isn't similar better product. You can do pvc which are about 3 times more expensive fireproof to a point and you'll need drop ceiling
This should have been 5 minutes. Respect your viewers do not waste their time.
can i glue the tiles to the joists --there is no ceiling--need to cover up the wiring
You could. But I wouldn't put these up, especially if u have live wiring. I'd say get the pvc ones . More expensive but these are easily penetrated that's why u want to put these as a veneer on something.
How much does this cost??? I just sprayed with water and used a scraper.
Is this stuff as flammable as it looks ?
talk talk, but it does look good, probably want to paint this afterwards
You mentioned painting these tiles....did you actually paint them for this video presentation??
i painted these later with fire rated paint i had lying around.
How would you go about it if there is a light popcorn ceiling but the ceiling is concrete. It is a condominium
same process Frank... Use QUICK GRAB PL adhesive instead it will guarantee to stick to cement and it dries hard, you may need to paint it afterwards though, if the grey glue is seen through , that would depend on how bright your condo is...but even with that, it would look even better when you paint it. which i did after i caulked the seams, just not in this video.
Styrofoam panels on a million dollar home is bad form. You can save money on other things.
Nice👍
Thx
You’re talking to much about stuff that doesn’t relate to the project. Plz get to the point. Geez!
These are incredibly dangerous. Polystyrene tiles are a massive fire hazard that allow house fires to spread quickly and put out deadly toxic fumes. They are outlawed for use by builders in the US. Its quite surprising to me that homeowners are able to easily buy them without being to the severe risk. :/
I don't know where u got your information but you're wrong. Tiles are certified and as far as fire hazards go. Curtains will start fires
If your ceiling is on fire then it's probably already spread everywhere.
Omg I love this
Your end little pieces look like shit. Not proper. Hack job
not a bad product if you're doing a large area, but when you're doing a single room, perhaps using better quality would be better
Being a painter for 40 years and not a person who measures twice and cuts once I rather remove the popcorn patch, prime and paint the ceiling, beside that having one of the lights not cut out and resting on the trim of one of the panels doesn’t bode well in a 1.4 million dollar house I would probably wonder what other little dandy’s you covered up, this video is a big bust.
Nothing was covered up, the market is expensive around here. But why do contractors always troll internet for videos to comment on in how they would do it, it's a diy solution not for people of your experience and skill with tools you have at your disposal. people are welcome to hire a person who specializes in popcorn removal and pay you couple hundred or thousand to scrape it, but then this video wouldn't exist and it wouldn't be a diy.
I am not Neil , looks beautiful , Is this product durable enough for camper trailers RV 's ? If so is the application the same ? In a RV it could add to the R value , I wonder how much R value it would add ? I this product suitable for a camper ? Thank you .
This took so long!!!!! I took of my popcor Viking in a room this size in 1 hr. Just lay down a drop cloth- get a pump sprayer ($15) Lethe dry wall knife ($17) i hr.
This is soooooo needless!!!! Take Precaution.
Wear a mask. Scrape away.
Adding more TO walls and ceilings is just perpetuating the problem for someone else to fix later down the line we need to just STOP.
This is going up in my den!
Is that reverse male pattern baldness?
Thanks for the intro though, I have thought for years these need to be made. Still over priced though, for what they are.
thanks for the comment Court:) And no, just a terrible haircut , I've been using the PVC vinyl ones at another property, much much harder to put up and 4x the price.. real estate agents don't see the difference anyways.
does it last forever? i also have pop corn ceiling and I do need to remove this . I prefer using tiles rather than removing. Do polystrene ceiling tiles last forever?
AMAZING
Oops the tennis ball hit the ceiling,got any spare tiles .
Yack yack yack! Get to the point!!!!!!
Is it worth it if selling? Have long room 28x15 separated by breakfast bar to 10x8 kitchen. From right above breakfast barBB area of ceiling back about 10’ in other words basically the middle portion of entire run it’s looking kinda shitty due to numerous patching from water leaking above. Used that Homex spray can a few areas not blending to good. May use hopper doing once over the worst portion to blend better then repaint. But save from needing tile whole ceiling what bout just a portion like 6-8’’x15’ over breakfast bar area. Thought of 4”x8”faux beam thru center of kitchen butting to a T over BB having 2 recesses lights in it with couple pediments hanging over BB. Integrating 2’x2’ tiles around pad the T portion could potentially look alright tho some of outside edges of tiles not bordering wall/ Beam be left exposed toward middle of dining room.
It's a large area but yes I've had several agents here and they love the look. I installed these all downstairs in hallway living room and family room.
Wow this guy is so shady. You can even see it in the way he answers the comments.
Hey Grupo thanks for the comment. Shady how, like i'm hiding in the shadows, or I'm dark, not bright enough? Shady how? what's so shady about me? :p spot the reference?
It's called. "cover up"!! That's what's shady!! That stuff is just horrible period!!
Toxic smoke and styrofoam melting like napalm on my skin is all I’m visioning during a house fire.
Really
great fire rating im sure. these types of guys trying to flip and put lipstick on a pig over inflate the market with bad quality homes and workmanship. there is a reason professional tradesmen cost what they do. i wonder if he spray paints his car or uses a roller?
