I know you guys have had to answer this before, but ….
What’s the best way to remove a heavy texture from drywall? I have an old house that needs a lot of sheetrock and texturing work. I’d like to remove the old heavy texture and replace it with a more up to date “knock-down”. I’m I simply facing sanding/grinding?
Thanks,

dave,
Why not remud? Roll on a wet base and wipe off with a 2' trowel. Do it twice and you'll have a slick finish. Plus your arms will get big from the 2'er.

That's probably the best idea. This is one of those situations where you know what you have to do, but you're just hoping that someone has a miracle cure that they've developed since the last time you faced this situation.
Thanks.
