So have an outbuilding that had been plastered a few months back.

So plaster is bone dry now and I want to paint it.

Using Macpherson eclipse emulsion then two coats of johstones cova plus. Now do I use the same 60/40 ratio for the second mist coat as the first?

The ceiling will be pure white - so can I get away with 2 top coats of macpherson emulsion ontop of 2 mist coats on the ceiling or should I get Johnstone cova plus for that as well?

1. Mist Coat 60/40
2. Mist coat 60/40 ?
3. Top Coat
4. Top Coat

I am sanding prior to all paint applucations using 180 grit paper.
