I have popcorn ceiling (yeah I know it's ugly) and after hurricane Frances there were some leaks which I fixed. Unfortunately some moisture got to the ceiling and there is a seam along the ceiling drywall that started peeling off. I used a drywall puddy knife and scaped off an area about 6 inches wide and 3" long that has no popcorn now.
I then tried to buy those popcorn repair kid...no luck...I cannot apply that stuff into the area I scaped to match the look of the rest of the ceiling. It's impossible. Plus the cottage cheese doesn't stick well anyways.
So now I am thinking of hiring someone to respray the entire room, covering that spot and the rest of the room as well. Can a total respray mask the spot or will it be worse apply popcorn on popcorn?
