In our home, we had these fake beams. We hated them so we removed them. BUT, they were held into place by these small strips that were liquid nailed to the ceiling. :wall: Does anyone know how to remove liquid nail from the ceiling? We have tried sanding, wet sanding, and scraping. It looks horrible. Thanks.

I doubt that you can remove the liquid nail by itself. Best bet would be scrape and cut it off. Then patch and retexture. If the area is small enough you can repopcorn with texture that comes in a spray can [available at most paint stores] Otherwise use a hopper gun and compressor.
