Reply to comment by Grippenripp in New painter questions about old paint on walls, unpainted popcorn ceilings and primer! by thatoneguyovertheres
OP should still test it. When I was working doing gut jobs on old houses we found out a lot of popcorn ceilings from the mid to late 90s still contained asbestos. Just because the EPA mandated it doesn't mean people stopped using/buying old stock and using it anyways because it was cheaper/easier. Not worth the risk of future lung cancer IMO, especially when testing is relatively cheap/easy.
