This simple and easy trick uses only a shop vac and a 6 inch putty knife and of course some duct tape. All one has to do is duct tape a 6" knife centered over the opening of the shop vac floor wand. My 6.0 HP shop vac removes most of the dust making this typically dusty project a breeze. I am working on my own house and not using a respirator in this video for the demonstration but you should always wear eye protection and a respirator for this type of work. Now we recommend using a tool like a Festool Planex with 20 grit sandpaper to remove textured ceiling but if you don't have access to that tool, this can be a simple way to remove gypsum ceiling textures.
