All of The Right Tools to Remove Your Stucco
Removing popcorn, stucco and/or textured ceilings is a tiresome and dirty project. Doing it yourself is incredibly daunting and almost unreasonable. Even for most general contractors and handymen, it’s a project they tend to shy away from. In order to refinish ceilings properly, you first have to remove and knock down the existing cement-like material. This means working above your head for a long, extended period of time which is a painful and strenuous task. Patch Dudes has a special tool designed specifically for smoothing out and sanding down the cement-like material, called a “Dustless Sanding Machine”. This unique tool not only has a long arm and large head to minimize strain and maximize productivity but it also has a vacuum attached to the sanding head with a hose. This vacuum hose sucks any dust or debris that will fall from your ceilings. As a result, the job is done faster and with less clean-up and relative mess. There are many reasons we use a dustless sanding machine. Dustless sanding reduces the amount of airborne dust, making it ideal for people with allergies or respiratory conditions. Another reason Patch Dudes uses a dustless sanding machine is that it helps to prevent cross-contamination. When using an ordinary sander, there is a risk of cross-contaminating surfaces if the same sander is used on multiple surfaces. This is because the abrasive particles can become embedded in the sander’s pad and then be transferred to other surfaces. This is not a concern with dustless sanding machines as they do not use pads. Dustless sanding machines are also more efficient than traditional sanders. This is because they use a vacuum to collect the dust instead of relying on air filters. This means that less time is spent cleaning the machine and more time can be spent on the project at hand. Overall, dustless machines offer many benefits over traditional sanders. They are safer to use, and less likely to cause cross-contamination.
