Painting the ceiling might seem like an arduous task, but with the right products and techniques, it can be a breeze! At Barrydowne Paint, we understand the intricacies of home painting projects. Partnering that knowledge with the impeccable quality of Benjamin Moore Paint, we've crafted a guide to help you achieve the best results for your ceiling paint job.
When painting a ceiling, one of the primary concerns homeowners have is the potential for visible imperfections. Benjamin Moore’s Waterborne Ceiling Paint is specially designed to address this concern. Being extra flat and with an extra low sheen, it hides flaws beautifully, making your ceiling look smooth and pristine.
Ensure the room is clean, with furniture covered or removed. Always lay a drop cloth to protect your floor from any accidental splatters.
For optimal painting conditions, lower the room's temperature. This technique increases the paint’s open time and prolongs its drying time, ensuring better leveling and a smoother finish.
Begin your paint job close to the window. As you progress, the natural light will reflect off the wet paint, helping you spot any missed areas or roller marks.
Painting the shorter width reduces the chance of roller marks. It's easier to maintain a wet edge, ensuring smoother transitions and minimizing overlaps.
Invest in a high-quality roller handle and roller. A good roller offers even coverage and minimizes the chances of drips or streaks.
As you paint, move from the window side to the side without a window. Using this technique in combination with the room’s natural light reflection ensures you can easily spot and rectify imperfections.
Ceiling painting can seem daunting, but with the right approach, it's a task that can truly transform a room. The Barrydowne Paint have always championed the cause of impeccable painting, and with Benjamin Moore’s Waterborne Ceiling Paint, achieving perfection is within arm's reach. Remember, a well-painted ceiling not only adds aesthetic value but elevates the entire ambiance of the room.
