Ceilings that receive opened spewed liquids of various kinds will always 'show' the spots and grow worse with time if not CLEANED. There is no 'brushing off' house dust that includes any form of oil and this always happens..and flat latex just soaks it up & shows through. Cake batter when a child is trying to 'help' can be found on the ceiling and everything below. Using semi-gloss paint - the stains can be removed with any good cleaner...no additional painting required. -- posted from http://www.homeownershub.com/mainten...ng-533537-.htm using HomeOwnersHub's Web, RSS and Social Media Interface to home and garden related groups |

Cindy Hamilton -- Well, this time 'crazy' works best. So well, that I've painted all popcorn ceilings with semi-gloss. I personally do not kick winning horses. -- posted from http://www.homeownershub.com/mainten...ng-533537-.htm using HomeOwnersHub's Web, RSS and Social Media Interface to home and garden related groups |
