    • Use a utility knife or five-in-one to remove loose paint or drywall from inside the crack.

    • Don’t gouge the ceiling but firmly scrape parallel to the crack. Scraping perpendicularly to the crack will only cause more damage.

    • Use mesh tape to tape over the crack.

    • Try to use long pieces of tape, if possible taping the entire crack with one piece.

    • It is also important to keep each piece of tape centered on the crack.

    • Use either a five-in-one or a putty knife to spread the compound.

    • Spread drywall joint compound over the tape so that it appears flat.

    • Use more joint compound than you need rather than less. You will sand off excess later.

    • Make sure to cover the tape completely.

    • After the compound has completely dried sand down any ridges that resulted from the putty knife.

    • This step will be messy! Everything in the room will get some dust on it, so either use dropcloths or be ready to clean when you're done.

    • Also, be careful not to get dust in your eyes, or inhale dust. You may wish to wear goggles and a dust mask.

    • Don’t sand into the tape.

    • You still want the compound to cover the tape and its contours completely.

    • Prime and paint the ceiling.

    • Use a primer and paint that has been matched to your ceiling by a paint shop.

    • The primer can be any color that is the same or lighter than your ceiling color.

Is it ok to remove the excess compound and smooth with a damp sponge?

I just rocked my third ceiling. The first looked like "before" in some spots; the next 2 are flawless. The secret is to put on very thin layers, and lots of them. Of course this takes a long time to dry each coat. But if you put the mud on thick it will shrink and crack later, plus you have a lot to scrape off and then you still have to fill in low spots.

If you use a sponge first, you can end up with a lumpy mess. Level it with a 12 inch knife until it's nearly flat, then on the last coat skim it over and smooth with the sponge.

My popcorn ceiling has peeled. I took away those rough edges. Can I spray on the popcorn ceiling. It's just small sections.

If I was to buy compound from Home Depot or lowe’s, what would I be looking for? Is there a brand that is recommended?
