To paint the ceiling, we need: a wide paint brush, ceiling paint, a roller, a paint bath, a ladder and a protective adhesive tape that protects non-painted surfaces from paint.

First of all, we free the room from furniture or cover it with foil. The ceiling is a hard-to-reach place, so it is best to use the first option. The old coating should be carefully removed and the surface should be primed. The primed ceiling must be well putty.

The filler should be selected for the type of room and compatibility with paint and primer. It is necessary to give each new layer of the putty to dry well. After finishing the leveling, the surface should be sanded with sandpaper..

Before starting painting, you should make an intermediate decoration of the surface with the elements you have prepared: rosettes, borders, ready-made baguettes and much more. The roller should be well and evenly impregnated with paint, preferably a liquid consistency. The paint should be applied carefully, but also quickly, without allowing it to thicken. The stripes should be applied so that the second strip slightly overlaps the first. Two layers should be applied, therefore, the second layer should be applied from the other end, looking at the ceiling from a different angle.
