  1. Trying to get in brownie points before fishing season. Wife wanted popcorn stucco removed from ceiling so I started with the dining-room 12X10. Used a 12" taping blade and knocked all popcorn down, soaked, and soaked, then removed the rest with a 6" putty knife being careful not to scar drywall. The ceiling has been painted many times over the last 25 years so it was brutal and took 2 days! I then skimmed with a 90 min set coat (noob too thick) and then primed and painted. Only skimmed 1 coat and seemed pretty flat (14" blade). I'd give it a 9/10. OK, living room time and twice as large. I have knocked the popcorn off again but wondering if I can just avoid the 2 days of scraping and instead go with 2 skim coats? I've watched a ton of youtube videos but most ceilings have not been primed and painted over 25 years hard as granite! This guy is my hero:
