May 26, 20206 yr Ceilings being skimmed this week . I wanted to finally unwrap the Wagner to spray them . I did want to use moisture resistant bathroom paint for the ceilings . Any suggestions on a brand ? . Also I know I need to dilute for the initial few passes to seal the plaster . That not a problem with “bathroom” paint as opposed to standard emulsion ?
June 2, 20206 yr Author Opened the sprayer today - just to take a look . Hose is missing ! Screwfix were shite . Wagner brilliant- sending me a hose no probs !

If not use it anyway on a roller. We had bunch of issues with other paint on the ceiling above our shower. Then someone here recommend Zinsser and it's been fine since. The ceiling actually drips with water sometimes. Edited June 2, 20206 yr by Temp

My ceilings usually drip with blood ! I was more concerned about ‘bathroom paint ‘ I.e mould / damp resistant going through the sprayer as opposed to normal emulation .
June 2, 20206 yr Google found a video of someone spraying Zinsser 123 on railings but only limited info in the description, none in the video. Elsewhere they say clean the sprayer with meths but some reports say it's difficult to clean up?

I would spray the first coats then roller, unless you are in boy with toy mode. Read the megathread though. The paints I have sprayed OK: Leyland Trade, Armstead (sp?), Valspar.
