my dad taught me how to do a lot of home renovation: installing new flooring, removing carpeting, painting interior and exterior walls, building screened in back porches, et cetera. one thing we did together was scraping the popcorn ceiling with a paint scraper, then tidying it up with the mud/putty/whatever it's called and painting it. I just wish i could buy my own place so i could renovate it.

Be careful handling asbestos. Damn stuff was in everything.

I think we wore masks. But hey, it was the 90s, we played fast and loose with the safety guidelines back then.
