earthrealm: Pop-corn ceilings, not good? I like the design it's just that some used in early 70s were detected to have asbestos, that is why they were condemned in USA present time. There are some of them without asbestos still lingering around in old homes now, especially some concrete ceilings. Hajji M. |

mufutau55: Thanks for the mention sir. It's definitely popcorn ceiling: flat drywall with textured paint. How to achieve this: Plasterboard/drywall is drilled to the wood, joints are treated, skimming(aka screeding), then textured/pattern paint is applied. |

Regarding “popcorn ceiling”, for what it’s worth it’s really old school design from the 60’s. People renovating older homes pay money to have it scraped off and there’s a right little cottage industry in the USA doing that. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by earthrealm(m): 7:52pm On Mar 01, 2020 |
Dominionng:ok, was thinking along those lines as well. so the design on the paint, is reproduced accurately/uniformly, am guessing the design is embedded in the paint roller, they are using? @egunmogaji, ooh its that old.. why is it called pop corn ceiling?. i still think its better than pvc and the like for budget builds |
