Texturing a ceiling

[dns1]

As I said on another thread, had a disaster with my kitchen ceiling due to the paint taking ages to dry on Zinsser coated areas.

I'm going to sand back the whole area and prime it but want to get a consistent light texture when I repaint.

Anyone got any tips for doing this?

For a start I'm assuming I should roll it, not spray... (which is actually a bonus as the sprayer takes longer to set up and clean than it does to just use a roller in the first place!)

Just buy Leyland smart matt. Add some water at around 5-10% and spray it.

As for a textured finish to the surface I'm not sure how you can do that.

If you're going to roll then get a 15inch or bigger roller
