Painting the ceiling
A few year back someone had painted the ceiling in their Monty. We keep getting stains showing where the staples are. I was wondering if anyone has painted their ceiling and what type of paint did you use?

So, nothing left to paint in or on the house, huh? Oh, I mean "ey"!

Try KILZ2 Latex (Lowes, Home Depot, Menards) with a cotton ball dabbing around the staples ... looks really close to original ceiling and saves one heck of a job trying to paint the entire ceiling. If you are a heavy smoker ... disregard.

Your spell check must be set on 'Merican rather than Canuck or it would have caught the misspelling of "EH"

I painted the ceiling in a previous trailer with latex ceiling paint and it turned out great. A lot off cutting I in. I used a lot of masking tape.

Well, I got her done. I covered all the stains with Kilz and then painted the entire trailer ceiling with latex ceiling paint. Looks awesome. Well worth the time and effort. EH
