Then apply 2 coats of Ben Moore or Sherwin Williams(or similar NAME
brand) FLAT WHITE CEILING PAINT using a GOOD quality roller cover paying
close attention to the aerea where the light hits it...Try to keep a
"wet edge" and work quickly.. Good luck...

NO NO NO!!! All painted surfaces in kitchens and bathroom should be
semi-gloss or high-gloss. Flat paint on a kitchen ceiling will soak up
any grease or smoke and will be uncleanable. Yuck.

Jesh , what do you have , 5 foot ceilings..you might want to install a
VENTED range hood...Does everyone in your house know supper is ready
because the smoke detector goes off...LOL...Reminds me of SWMBO's cooking
many years ago when we first married...LOL...

Umm, no, I have wallpaper in my kitchen with naturally finished wood trim
(nearly 200-year-old-varnish) and normal 8' ceilings painted with
semi-gloss, like every other sensible person. PLONK!

Jesh , calm down and get a sense of humor...I was joking.(notice the LOL's)
The OP ( who hasn't even bothered to check back with more info) isn't very
good at painting and was trying to cover up the mess he has made of his
ceiling and I pointed him to the most forgiving paint which is flat white
ceiling paint which is "normally" fine...I have drywalled hundreds of houses
over the last 20 or so years and we typically spray one coat of primer on
ceilings and walls then spray 2 coats of flat white ceiling paint on all the
ceilings back rolling it as we go..I have also done many repair jobs on
existing ceilings and I have only seen the greasy messes that you all seemed
concerned about in restaurants..Granted , I'm in Maine so maybe it's a
regional or ethnic thing...Sorry if I "offended" anyone..I forget that you
can't joke around anymore....Can't hurt anybodies feelings , don't you
know...Just not PC anymore...Oh well.....plonk away...



I have fixed the problem. It appears the quality of the roller was
the big problem. I bought a low budget roller from Crappy Tire and it
sucked. I went to home depot and bought what they said was the best
roller they got. It rolled the ceiling perfectly. Thanks for the
help and all the very interesting replies !!!!
