Get it slightly wet, and it will scrape right off. Don't soak it, otherwise you may damage the drywall behind it, but if you get it slightly wet, it will pretty much fall off. I saw a popcorn removal tool at Lowes that is a square type blade thing that has an attachment that holds a trash bag. This tool would eliminate quite a bit of mess. Maybe even with the tool you wouldn't have to get it wet. Trial and error.

I've been a painting contractor for 32 years. Here's how you do it: you're going to need two coats of paint at least. For the first coat, roll your paint parallel to the ceiling to within a couple of inches of the ceiling, then using an angle cut brush of 2 to 2 1/2 inches in width (spend some money and get a good brush; don't use a piece of crap) paint up to within 1/8 to 1/4 inch of the ceiling. I like moving from right to left and painting from left to right into the paint(always paint into the paint you've brushed on the wall, not away from it). When you come back to do your second coat it will be easier to cut a line right at the ceiling because your brush slips more smoothly over the fresh first coat. The difference in color between the wall and the ceiling will make it easier for your eye to tell your hand where to go with the paint. Unless there is a perfectly sharp corner at the ceiling your line will be either on the wall or on the ceiling. In general, it's better to get it more on the ceiling than on the wall, because otherwise, assuming the ceiling is lighter, the line of your new paint will look more uneven from a distance.

To effectively paint your bathroom ceiling for a fresh and updated look, follow these steps: Clean the ceiling thoroughly to remove any dirt or grime.

I recently had a ceiling sprayed and the foam got on everything. Since we are building, I needed to get the foam off of the studs. I used a paint scraper and it worked perfectly. You can pick up a scraper at any store that sells paint. Hope this helps.

To effectively remove and prevent bathroom ceiling mold, regularly clean the area with a mixture of water and vinegar or bleach, ensure proper ventilation in the bathroom, fix any leaks or water damage, and use a mold-resistant paint on the ceiling.
The best techniques for scraping a ceiling to remove old paint and prepare it for a fresh coat include using a putty knife or scraper to gently remove the old paint, sanding the surface to smooth out any rough areas, and applying a primer before painting.
