    Ceiling nightmare

    Cheers guys. I think part of the problem maybe because I am painting white on white and can't easily see where I have covered. Anyone ever used these paints that go on pink and dry white - what are they like ?

    Ceiling nightmare

    Thanks Guys. I was using a brush as I tend to prefer the finish. Billyo - I didn't think I would need to seal as the ceiling had already been painted and I was just freshening up. I don't mind spending to get a decent finish what I don't want to do is to spend something that will not solve it
