WHY USE CEILING PAINT?
Ceiling paint has been specifically developed to work with a wide range of ceiling surfaces.
Hide Imperfections, Less Coats, Less Mess
Ceiling paint is typically formulated in with a matte or flat sheen, allowing it to hide imperfections on most surfaces. It is typically a high-hiding formula featuring spatter-resistance to reduce mess while painting.
Often flat/matte ceiling paint will not be applied to areas that are subject to high-levels of moisture, for example a bathroom with a shower. A higher sheen paint may be preferred for such areas.
