Hi,

Had to open up a hole in our Kitchen ceiling to reach some plujmbing.
Will have it re-plastered soon.

Will bring a paint sample to local Paint Store so that they can match the
ceiling color, which is an off white.
Not sure abosut what the sheen or gloss would be called.

Am hoping that with "matched" paint, I can get away with just re-painting
the patch,
rather than the complete ceiling.

Question: to give me the best chance of blending it in well, should I use
a decent quality brush, one of those really cheap rubber foam types of
brush, or a roller ?
Why ?

If a roller, what kind of knap, etc. ?

Thanks,
Bob




0% chance of it "blending"in...Paint the whole ceiling...


0%? It's off white. It's a ceiling. It's a kitchen ceiling. OP should
slap some paint on there with whatever kind of brush or roller he has
lying around and forget about it. Y'all talk like he's trying to restore
a damn Monet mural.
