Textured ceiling removal
I see a lot of topics about dealing with popcorn ceiling, but I have a slightly different case. I've embedded an image. It looks like it was "stamped". To me it's not as bad to look at as popcorn, but my wife is adamant about removing it in favor of smooth ceiling (this happens to be a personal residence rehab, but I thought the would be helpful for reference).
Is this going to be as simple as scraping like popcorn, or do you think it will be more involved? Seems to me if that's drywall paste textured that it will be difficult to impossible to scrape. Are we looking at new 'rock, or ?
