Read the OP's message again, carefully. This is going over an existing
plaster ceiling; stained, but presumably otherwise in good condition. So
why would you *not* want to use 1/4" drywall? By the way, I have done
this, and it works fine.


Price the stuff out. 1/4 cost way more than 1/2 or 3/8. Plus the hassle of
getting it up there without breaking it.

No way I would use 1/4 on a ceiling and I can't lift crap anymore.
