Fyi I'm going to buy the 24' doca pole you suggested. my ? is I do have bacon grease on my popcorn ceiling over the stove. you said it's difficult to clean, should I just paint over it? I guess I'm also going to be buying an air fryer😊
@AskAngelaBrown2 жыл бұрын
LOL. Wow, you've got the double whammy going on there with buying all the goods. The DocaPole you will LOVE for so many reasons including the fact that it comes with a deep cleaning pack of dusters and brushes you will use for other cleaning things. If your ceiling is sealed, you're going to need a different cleaning process. I've included paid links for easy reference but you can use any brands you like. This is the process: THINGS YOU WILL NEED: 1) Drop Cloth - amzn.to/377tBUD 2) Shower Cap - amzn.to/36OTmsL 3) Safety Glasses - amzn.to/3K3xzvM 4) Krud Kutter Original Degreaser - amzn.to/36OtDRo 5) Deck Broom - amzn.to/376ZgVU 6) Paint Roller Kit - amzn.to/3DE23Cj Step 1) Put drop cloths down to cover the kitchen, stove and any other area you don't want gunk on. Step 2) Wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Step 3) Wear a shower cap for this one - any old cheap one will do. Wear safety glasses - any glasses that protect your eyes will do. Step 4) Spray Krud Kutter Original Degreaser on the grease covered ceiling working in sections. (You can buy this cheaper at Home Depot) but make sure it's the original Concentrate, not the Kitchen degreaser. Leave on after spraying for 30 seconds to 1 min for dwell time (so the cleaner can activate.) Step 5) Use a dry deck broom to scrub the ceiling. Looks like this:amzn.to/376ZgVU (And this one will screw onto your new DocaPole) NOTE: It's going to make a mess and bits of Krud Kutter/grease will fall on your head and face. Use the pole to clean areas in front of you, not directly over your head. Step 6) Using a damp (No bleach, just water squeezed out) paint roller go back over the scrubbed area. The damp paint roller will soak up your grease. When the paint roller is icky, wash it out in the kitchen sink in hot water using some dish soap. Squeeze out the paint roller and use again. Keep rinsing the paint roller as you do sections of the ceiling. Allow the ceiling to dry. It should look as good as new. Let me know how it goes for you. I'm eager to hear your results.

Great video! I have popcorn ceilings (hate them). They are collecting dust near some of the air vents in the ceiling. It looks like light grey streaks on the popcorn. I know it's because my vent is nearly closed directing the air flow along the ceiling instead of leaving it more open to allow the air flow to drop, if that makes sense. Fun story...after I shower, I spread out my towel over the shower curtain rod to dry... well, I'm super short and 1 day I tossed my towel up there a bit too hard and I literally knocked down some popcorn pieces and they fell right in my eye. It hurt really bad, but as my eye watered it all came out quickly, but yikes! Kinda scary!

@AskAngelaBrown Жыл бұрын
I understand your frustration and concern about how to remove the exploded boiled egg from your mom's popcorn ceiling. The good news is that there are some effective and safe methods to clean it. 🤗 Firstly, you can try using a sponge or cloth dampened with warm water to gently wipe away the egg residue. You can also add a small amount of mild dish soap to the water for extra cleaning power. Be sure to test the cleaning solution on a small, inconspicuous area of the ceiling first to ensure that it does not damage the popcorn texture. Another option is to mix equal parts of water and white vinegar in a spray bottle and apply the solution to the affected area. Allow it to sit for a few minutes before wiping it away with a sponge or cloth. If the egg residue is particularly stubborn, you can also try using a commercial cleaning product specifically designed for removing tough stains and residues from ceilings. However, be sure to read the product label carefully and follow all safety instructions. In any case, be sure to work slowly and gently to avoid damaging the popcorn texture or causing the egg residue to spread further. Good luck with the cleaning process!

Be patient and take your time to protect the popcorn texture. Hope this helps. Happy cleaning!

How to take yellow stains on the ceiling from cooking smoke due to the kast attendances
@AskAngelaBrown Жыл бұрын
Hi, yellow stains on the ceiling from cooking smoke can be quite frustrating, but there are a few methods you can try to remove them. First, ensure good ventilation while cooking to minimize smoke buildup. To tackle the stains, mix a solution of warm water and mild dish soap, and gently scrub the affected area with a sponge or cloth. Alternatively, you can create a paste using baking soda and water, apply it to the stains, let it sit for a while, and then wipe it off. If these methods don't work, you might consider using a stain-blocking primer before repainting the ceiling. Remember to follow safety precautions, such as wearing protective gear and opening windows for proper ventilation. Best of luck with your stain removal!

Popcorn ceilings in homes are more common than you suggest. Another reason they were extensively used in home construction is it's cheaper because the builder can use thinner drywall for the ceiling because popcorn hides any sagging between joists. It's really only in more recent years that popcorn ceilings have fallen out of fashion, and as with most trends it will probably make a comeback. Also, the inclusion of asbestos in spray-on applications was banned in 1990, so any ceiling applied after that should NOT contain asbestos. I only have one ceiling in the house that has any noticeable dust accumulation, and that's my Den, which has a ceiling fan operating full-time. That's probably the source of my issue.

It would be pretty silly to send off a sample to an asbestos lab when you can just take it outside and put a blow torch to it. In ten seconds you will find out if it is asbestos as the stuff neither burns nor melts. And it is not like it is radioactive as some have been led to fear.

It is extremely dangerous to attempt to identify asbestos with a blowtorch. Asbestos fibers can become airborne when disturbed, and inhaling them can cause serious health problems

That looks like a classic 1970's Florida house just by the style of the air conditioning vent. One thing I would consider with regards to popcorn ceilings besides the need to have them removed is that homes built prior to 1979 and especially homes build up until the mid 1960's, the popcorn ceilings "MAY" contain asbestos. Much later popcorn ceilings use styrofoam instead. Either way, ugly, dated and can reduce the value of a home.

LOL. I'm hearing a common thread of folks who dislike the looks of popcorn ceilings. Yes, you are correct about the asbestos possibilities. I agree with you that one should check for asbestos before tackling a ceiling job. Once you do the test though, you will know for the life of the ceiling. So it's a safe bet to check at least once. 👍

@@AskAngelaBrown the last time I had popcorn ceilings was years ago. I painted them myself with a roller. The paint I used painted on a purple color and then turned white. The color was so you could see your coverage of paint. I never heard of anyone cleaning the ceiling. If there were a stained area I would apply Kils primer first on the area stained.

Nope. Hire a drywaller and have them scraped and replaced with smooth ceilings. You will never regret it. That crap screams 1970
@AskAngelaBrown2 жыл бұрын
LOL. You're right they were very popular in the 70's and 80's. I do believe many more builders are now leaving the smooth ceilings. Just think, it used to be uncool to have "naked" ceilings and the job wasn't considered done until it had a popcorn layer on it.

This is NOT the easiest way. Vacuum it with a ship vac with the brush attachment. Cleans of the dust and leaves the popcorn and does it wayyyy faster than you did here.
