I want to put popcorn on the ceiling as i finish installing a bathroom and a hallway. Does anyone here have any hints on how to do it? I see there is dab on stuff for small areas, spray on stuff, and I assume you can use a tool with mud to do it as well. What is best?
I'm in the market for a new home right now. One of the first things I learned was that ceiling popcorn drops the value of your home.
If you REALLY want it, go for it, but do some research on it first. Good luck!
Edit - not trying to be negative, but I just had this conversation with my realtor.
Popcorn ceiling drops the value of your home?...I laugh in your general direction. That is the most absurd thing i have heard
