Hello all Maintained my cars for years, done woodwork, plumbing and electrics but always moved house when a ceiling needed painting. Like this house and don't want awkward questions around part p so am finally going to have to paint a ceiling.
Ceiling is being professionally skimmed flat. It is about 9 inches higher than my reach. About 12.5 sq m.
Don't want to hire any platforms Don't want to buy or hire any expensive pump gadgets.
Is it just a question of cutting in around the edge and then using a roller?
Any advice on length of roller handle or type of roller? Bad back would not appreciate too much weight too far forward.
I understand first coat should be thinned non vinyl and that a further 2 or 3 coats will be required?
Room will be cleared and will be totally redecorated and carpeted so only me to protect from splashes.
TIA for all replies not involving angle grinders. (Yes I have got one but it doesn't seem much use for this job.)
