First decent video on this subject with no annoying music. Just explaining the process. Thank you.

[@blesseddaily9651]

Thanks for sharing this video.

[@hellersbakery6]

Thanks great facts to learn. I understand some practice needed with the sprayer for even paint

[@Rammer_Jammer]

👍👍 Just Finished Mine With a Roller The Old Fashion Way.Happy Holidays Jeff 🎄

[@bobsmith962]

Very good way to paint popcorn without damaging the ceiling.

[@stephencochran2701]

If you want to put mud on after to smooth the finish, what paints should you use before?

[@steverone7623]

We did ours years ago with a 3/4" nap roller. Even bought the little bottle to throw the sparkles back on the ceiling lol. Originally had multicolored sparkles but could only find silver

[@lillithjones993]

If you have to repatch some popcorn areas, do you spray primer on to the new popcorn texture or just paint over it? and whatever you do, do you have to wait till the popcorn dries first?

[@pamelaf5913]

What paint spray gun did you use I have this thing from Home Depot

[@maggielee7513]

I suppose you could take the baseboards outside (if there is no wind) put down tarps and spray. if the house is still occupied - yes?

[@polocash11]

If I buy a paint that requires a 517, but I am limited to 515, does thinning fix this. I know to strain well also. I plan to get a graco x5.

[@LennyCooke636]

I need to spot paint a sections of my pop-corn ceiling after some minor damage from a storm. How do I match the paint without painting the entire ceiling ?

[@HarryHaller2U]

I just did a small bathroom ceiling with a brush and a 4" roller, and it the task took its toll on my neck. I can see the obvious benefit of a sprayer, but Is this practical for the average person/DIYer for smaller tasks? And yes, I had to return for a second coat in spite of using paint that went on in a pinkish tinge but dried white.

[@synthesaurus]

You can roll these with oil based paint or primer. Still have to cover everything and deal with smell. There are low odor alkyd primers though.

[@theriawilliams818]

Can you use a clear sealant on it before you use the white paint..Can you use mold primer as well...

[@VegasTripp]

is it unheard of or "dumb" to use semi gloss on the ceiling? I bought a sprayer and semi gloss white and wanted to just hit the roof walls and ceiling at same time without having to tape or spend time switching out the paints in the sprayer. Our popcorn ceilings now look to have a satin paint job

[@steveJM9231r3]

I noted some heavy discoloration where the AC duct discharged dust and dirt over time, and yet you did not take any special preparations or cleaning before painting. Are you using a special paint to cover the dirt and ensure adhesion. Same question for the duct grills.? Thanks

[@GAMERFREAK-ki4jv]

Have a question brotha, we sprayed my popcorn ceiling 2 days ago. Been letting paint cure. I had the electrician come today and when he went in the attic he pushed open the little door that used to seal attic. When he closed it or slammed it the popcorn ceiling came off?? Also the paint was still wet underneath. I’m concerned now hopefully the whole dam ceiling don’t come down. I used a spray gun and flat ceiling paint. Had to spray twice cause the first time it absorbed the paint quickly. Was this due to the electrician slamming the attic door down or did I spray to much paint? Anything helps.

[@Nick-pd5gd]

what brand paint sprayer do you recommend ? My whole house needs done and I don,t want to buy junk. I need something that will hold up.
