Bathroom ceiling

Would Not Recommend

We painted our bathroom ceiling 2 wks ago. Now we have pinkish red spots all over the ceiling and its dripping down the walls like a scene from a horror movie. Im just glad we didn’t paint the walls yet. Now I need to re-paint the ceiling. So disappointed and a waste of money.

Good ceiling paint - fair price

Would Recommend

This paint covered very well with one coat. I really like the pink when wet and then dried to white. It was helpful to me.

Good hide properties

Would Recommend

I used the leftover paint on some painted plywood I was going to use as a ceiling attic hatch in my garage. One coat of this paint completely hid the underlying colors.

Color change is awesome

Would Recommend

I bought this to touch up the ceiling after painting the walls. It covers color in one coat and the color change let's you know exactly where you have already applied.

Bright white my behind!

Would Not Recommend

Pros: Rolls on with little spatter. Covers pretty good. The fumes aren't too bad. Relatively inexpensive. Cons: You can't use it in bathrooms because moisture will turn it pink again, tho I didn't use it there. The color is NOT "Bright White". Dingy gray would be more accurate. I wanted "Bright White" & it's far from it. Paint makers don't seem to know what "Bright White" really is, thus 3 stars. After applying 2 coats & being thoroughly disappointed with the tone I went & bought some SW Emin...

I now have a pink spotted ceiling

Would Not Recommend

This is the worst!!! After redoing my bathroom, I purchased this because it is supposed to be for wet areas. I shower with a fan on and yet from the moisture, it has made my ceiling pink spotted. It is gross!! And now it drips on the floor, so it looks like I have blood stains on the floor.

One coat cover

Would Recommend

I bought this to cover up spots on the ceiling caused by roof leaks. I painted it a year ago with another brand and it showed through in certain light. I bought this on the recommendation of the sales rep in my paint department at Lowe's. It didn't look any different than the other brand but I was willing to give it a try. It went on easy and because I have popcorn ceilings I needed a special roller. I painted it with 2 coats to be sure but after the first coat dried it looked better than the ot...

Nice concept

Would Not Recommend

Not a good idea in a bathroom. If it gets too humid after a hot shower, the ceiling turns pink again.
