How to transform ugly popcorn (stucco) ceilings into something worth looking at within just couple of hours .

by on Apr 8, 2007

Hi everyone,

Here I just wanted to show how you can transform ugly popcorn (stucco)ceilings without tearing it off – fast, clean and easy.

On the pictures below you may see all stages of “covering” the existing popcorn ceilings with Polystyrene ceiling tiles (this specific model called R-16)

    "Using a Kitchen bowls to decorate the ceiling"   

 45 min later    The ceiling in a yellow hall is white.

The whole job took about two hours. Tools used – utility knife, putty knife for adhesive (Acryl-Pro from Home Depot ), miter box to cut the crown moldings, measuring tape and pencil.

I used polystyrene crown moldings to cover the gap between the wall and the last tile and was cutting them with utility knife .

Those tiles are easy paintable however I decided to leave them white .

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at [email protected]

Cheers!
