I will be posting pictures of this one pretty soon.  I had just one room to do and it was pretty easy.  Dusty got a great deal on a condo by UCF and wanted to have the popcorn removed.  He called a few contractors but liked my price best.  I wasn’t the cheapest but at the same time, I gave him a fare price based on just one room and 3 hours of my time.  The ceiling was not painted so the removal came of with ease.  We covered a few nail pops and a hole that krept up into the ceiling from a previous leak.  We then applied an apartment style knockdown since that is what his unit used to be.  Now it looks like a brand new room and i am sure it will look great once it is painted.  The only hiccup was a small paint peel when removing the plastic from the walls.
