Stucco-be-gone!

[c9]

I wish I had a magic wand. Luckily, the little punish-the-cats spray bottle is doing nicely at making the stucco just peel away from the ceiling -- it's radical!



Another couple hours and the entire kitchen ceiling should be roughly flat. Sadly it's bare concrete, so I will have to then plaster it smooth again in a few places. But shouldn't be too too bad. I hope.

Better than the stucco, that's for sure.

UPDATE: Done! The ceiling is now sorta flat and sorta bare. Soooo much easier than the scraping I tried in October.

It's probably easier than plastering. They just spray the stuff on, don't they?

I believe there are two types, but yes. The spray-on stuff, not painted, looks horrible and falls off the ceiling in the breeze or when touched. I'm glad to be rid of it.
