Mr Punter Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 It is going to be so much harder to coax people into that shower with a paint finish like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No,I should be ok. Their eye will be drawn away from the ceiling towards the dodgy tiling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a serious note, as I'd plastered my bathroom myself I used Leyland Super Leytex high opacity paint as a base. Also used Easifill 20 where required. Topcoated with Dulux Matt Diamond. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it's not that bad - just don't like it; when there's little you can do. Tomorrow will tell!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I know . Down lighting with different ‘whites’ can hide a lot .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about you but I often think photos make it looks worse. Especially with the flash on the camera. To get a real feel as to how good/bad it is get up on a pair of steps with your head touching the ceiling and look. Then hurry back down the steps thanking the Lord you've got bright lights! ?

Onoff Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 Happy enough with my ceiling though this shot taken just now once again shows up my tiling inexperience! Why oh why didn't I move the cupboard left by an inch and the tiles all up a tad and lose those ridiculous, pita to do and very time consuming rips??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Standing in the ensuite with the light on and deliberately looking for ‘faults’ - it’s hard to see anything . So on that basis a success !! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
