How do you remove popcorn texture from your walls?
My kitchen walls have popcorn texture and I am looking to get information on how to remove it so I can update the walls to include back-splashes. In an earlier post you had posted great DIY on how to create diy backsplash.

I've had best results by spraying with warm water and scraping. Cover everything up, including yourself, because it gets everywhere. If it has been painted the job will be much more difficult.
I have done this in small bath and entry. Wear a billed cap and eye protection or face shield to keep it out of your eyes. I am considering nailing up beadboard or press tin over it in the kitchen to avoid the mess of scraping.
Here's a link that shows you just what to do.
