The garage floor is now prepped. I gave it an acid bath which opens the pores in the surface of the concrete so the paint will stick better. It did a lot of foaming but doesn't look any different so I hope it works. The other project under way, the ceiling in the master bedroom, is now void of any popcorn texture. I thought the pressure washer would work good to get the ceiling wet since it puts out a small amount of water rather than using the garden hose. Still not a good idea. I ran down to the local Home Depot and picked up a one gallon garden sprayer which worked perfectly. Most of the popcorn came off pretty good with some spots taking a second spray of water to get the stuff loose.
Sue was busy cleaning, or should I say scrubbing, showers, floors cabinets and more. I'd say we had a very productive day going home very pooped. When we went to start the car, the battery was dead. I guess you just can't leave that back hatch open and expect the battery to do its job. Michelle was quick to the rescue with a battery charger/starter and we were back in business in no time. Thank you Michelle for your quick response saving our day…..more later..
