We let the paste dry overnight, and then it was back to work… using coarse-grained drywall sandpaper for the first pass…
And fine-grained paper for the second pass.
The reason we were wearing masks.
Time to take a break while the dust clears…
Then it’s back upstairs to vacuum up the loose dust on the walls and prep for the retexturing.
But hot damn, that ceiling looks better…
Tomorrow: primer and paint, round 3.
