Hi, I have a question for you paint experts. We have a 2 year old house and we needed to repaint the kitchen ceiling due to a very minor water damage. (that's not the issue) What a nightmare ! 3 coats later and we can see all the roller streaks in the ceiling throughout the kitchen during daylight hours. It looks like a horrible job. We are using Betonel Cloud white paint, which is pretty standard and we are painting directly on the old surface which was the same thing originally. Does anyone know why all the roller marks would show up on the ceiling during daylight hours ? Is there a special roller to use when painting a ceiling ? We are using a 12mm roller. We have no clue what's causing this to happen. We thought maybe a lack of paint on the roller but we tried soaking it good before the 3rd coat, and still were seeing many streaks. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
