remove ceiling "popcorn" from sandblasted glass?
 
We have an exterior entry door with several leaded glass panels - the leaded
glass is sandblasted - the glass panels picked up some overspray when we
were having the entryway area remodeled - we'll be re-painting the wood
sections of the door, but before we do that, what's the best way to remove
the "popcorn" material from the glass sections? The leaded glass won't take
a lot of scraping or pressure. THANKS!

Warm water and a soft bristle brush.


And let it sit long enough to get very soft.

Ditto...Be patient....Use a spray bottle...Hit with the warm water mist as
many times it takes to soften up...Good luck....

Why not? I have done leaded glass work and would use paint remover in
that situation. I would be very worried about using anything water-
containing on the door if I was going to re-paint it as the water will
get into the wood and cause problems, while the paint remover will
soften the paint so it can easily be scraped off the glass.

The glass DOES not have paint on it. The OP has over spray from the
new popcorn ceiling. A damp paper towel or a light misting with
water/Windex will clean the glass.

Painter remover IS to harsh for the project at hand, plus, paint can
be removed from glass without a stripper type product.

I guess I'm confused. Why would the OP HAVE to repaint the trim if he
appplied the paint remover only to the glass? I said in the original

they were going to repaint anyway. Read the original post if you

Once I read that actual *popcorn* was fastened to the ceiling. Maybe

Yes it does....If the OP listened to your stupid advice he would be
re-painting trim as well.....Popcorn is made with joint compound ,
texture
spray mix , water and white flat wall paint...ALL water washable....-

I guess I'm confused. Why would the OP HAVE to repaint the trim if he
appplied the paint remover only to the glass? I said in the original
response to apply the paint remover carefully. The OP also said that
they were going to repaint anyway. Read the original post if you
don't believe me.


Yes you are confused and an idiot...- Hide quoted text -

But I have a 5-star rating and you only have 2 stars so some people
must think I am not confused and an idiot.

That's not what your wife said...JUST KIDDING..Sorry couldn't resist that
easy comeback....LOL....What the heck are you talking about ???- Hide quoted text -

We have an exterior entry door with several leaded glass
panels -
the
leaded glass is sandblasted - the glass panels picked up
some
overspray
when we were having the entryway area remodeled - we'll
be
re-painting
the
wood sections of the door, but before we do that, what's
the best
way
to
remove the "popcorn" material from the glass sections?
The leaded
glass
won't take a lot of scraping or pressure. THANKS!

Paint remover very carefully applied.

Where does the OP say the overspray was water-based?? I have
applied
paint remover using a paint brush to do almost exactly what
the OP
proposes to do.


reply: I don't believe I have ever seen "popcorn" that wasn't
water based
drywall mud paste with styrofoam additives. I could be wrong,
though. I
was once before, too.

If the "popcorn" is really put on with a water-soluble matrix, then
just water/soapy water will work. But the OP didn't say exactly what
had been used and there are several types of"popcorn" ceiling.

There are actually a few who do have some good things to say. You might
just mention to them regarding top posting, and snipping. For some people,
google is chosen for a variety of reasons, and that's another whole thread.

I have a one strike and you're out policy. Some foul mouth or idiot will
get killfiled after one post. For others who diverse into politics, or who
rant, or who just don't know what they are talking about, it's a few times.
But don't throw the baby out with the wash water.

Steve
