You can use joint compound and they have textured rollers that will make it 
look very close to what you have.  Just put some compound on the spot and roll 
the textured roller across the place and let it dry.  

One good thing about that type of finish, no one will know there was a problem 
because if you make a mess with the compound, no one will ever know.

  Subject: [BlindHandyMan] popcorn ceiling


    
  Hello Again,

  Well assuming our next step in the paint project goes well, I have a second 
project for Monday. Actually this is one for my husband, but I want to make 
sure I buy the right stuff. I have some discoloring and a small whole in my 
living room's popcorn ceiling. There is no sag and the original problem has 
been attended too. Can I just fill the whole in with drywall spackle? I know it 
will not look the same, but my husband will never mess with matching up the 
popcorn texture so I just need something that will work.

  Then I plan to cover it with Keels. Is that the right name? The stuff you put 
on to make sure stains do not leak through. I am told this comes in a spray 
paint now, but I am not certain how well it will work to be doing that upward 
at a ceiling. Does anyone have any thoughts on that? Can I use a roller on the 
popcorn ceiling for that stuff or the paint?

  Eventually I want to replace the ceiling, but for now it will just have to 
work.

  Jennifer
