How to paint a ceiling

Once you have chosen your colour, product and accessories it's time to paint.

 

Step 1: Prep

• Move furniture and items out of the way to avoid paint splatter, if you can’t move them, cover them up with a drop sheet
• Tape drop sheet to the skirting and make sure to overlap the drop sheets for full protection
• Apply tape along the upper edges of the walls to prevent paint splatter, and ensure to tape off any fixtures such as light switches for added protection and if possible, remove light fixtures when safe to do so.
• Remove any dust or grime from the ceiling and repair any cracks or holes with caulk or filler. Don’t forget to wipe down any dust after sanding
• Treat any mould, water leakage or water stains prior to starting your project with Flood Mould Action. Refer to back of pack for use.  

 

Step 2: Paint

• Using the paint brush in your kit, cut in the edges, cornices and around fixtures.
• Now using the roller in your kit, apply the paint in 1m grids ensuring to keep a wet edge. Evenly coat the entire ceiling.

 

There you have it; your refreshed ceiling is ready to impress both you and your guests.
