Why bother taking the risk?
Having spoken to quite a few firms about the 1970s artex celings in our house everyone said they don't even bother to strip it from plaster celings they just remove the celings as it works out quicker and cheaper for everyone.
They only bother surface removal from concrete and then they all use a product called x-tex

Removing Artex ceiling as a DIY job? 70s house so probably contains asbestos - test kit results outstanding. I’ve read everything from, wet it down and wear an FP3 mask/coverall, to, absolutely not instant death. Anyone with lived experience? Am I mad to even consider it?
