Re: 2 Coats Of Primer On Ceiling Rather Than Paint?


One time long, long ago, I used regular oil Kilz on a ceiling that was water damaged. The ceiling was the little acoustic snap-in 12" square tiles that get stapled to furring strips. It was a bathroom and looked like new when I was finished.

I would never try that on a larger room. As mentioned before, unless someone's climbing the walls, the ceiling doesn't need the protection that a wall does.
