- 1). Remove any furniture and wall fixtures from the room you are working in. Lay a plastic tarp across the floor and tape it around the edges of the room.
- 2). Spray a small portion of the wall with water from a spray bottle. Apply water until the popcorn is damp.
- 3). Hold the drywall blade so the blade is upright and flush against the wall where you sprayed the water. You should hold it so the blade is at a 30-degree angle.
- 4). Gently push the blade up, scraping the popcorn texture off the wall as you push. Scrape away all of the damp popcorn in the same way.
- 5). Spray another portion of the wall and scrape off the damp popcorn. Keep doing this until the wall is clear.
- 6). Wrap up the plastic tarp and throw all of the scraped off popcorn away.
