Yeah it's just stucco, like the stuff you find in office buildings/schools and shi.

TO OP, you're best off following the advice one guy told you, just don't use too much mud right away, cause you don't wanna paint f'd up finishing.

Oh and you really want to do it anyways, not just if there's already damage or flaws, it'll just make everything easier in the long term.

like after you remove all the popcorn,obviously u have to patch up any imperfectins and cracks with spackling paste and then sand it down flush.. but once that is sorted out,is it ready to be primed then painted???or do u have to put a brand new layer of mud for the entire ceiling first before prime/paint??

any help would be appreciated,,

Question: how did you get popcorn on your ceiling? And how did the popcorn actually stain the ceiling?

i was tripping out more about the cherry lollipop that was stuck up there

I heard older popcorn ceilings may contain asbestos. Whether it does or not ventilation and a mask may be recommended. I had it removed in most of my house and they tented the rooms as well.

yes,it did contain esbestos so we did have it professinally removed

lmfao how did this show up in my tag **** lmfao motherfuckers

cause i tagged u bruh,this the type of **** that come natural to mexicans,thats why i tagged cuah too.....and reed

so spackle the imprfections first...then do a thin layer of mud for the entire ceiling? and then prime and painte?

You've got it mane, sounds so at least.

Stucco doesn't have that much a-best-oh's luckily/sadly anymore. As long as it is not a ceiling from before the mid 1970s there won't be any asbestos. So only the real grungy ones are gonna really mess up your plans. That being said, I've probably been exposed to an ungoldy level over the years, so who knows if I know what a normal amount is anymore

It really just depends on how many imperfections are in the drywall. If you sanded it, and it looks/feels smooth, you can prime it...
