Ceiling paint is different from regular paint. It has more Titanium Dioxide in it which is what gives it the strong white color. The more Titanium Dioxide a paint has the whiter it is and the better it can hide other colors using fewer coats.
Be aware that ceiling paint is designed for ceilings only. Some people make the mistake and try to use it for walls. Ceiling paint is not designed for contact surfaces.
All whites and all ceiling paints are not the same, so make sure that you have enough of the same paint. you don't want to stop in the middle of the ceiling and start with a different ceiling paint. It will never match.Is ceiling paint better than wall paint?
PAINT THE WHOLE THING(the whites are different in different paints).CEILING PAINT JUST HAS MORE PIGMENT(basically thicker and holds) IN IT SO IT DOESNT DRIP AS MUCH AS REGULAR LATEX WALL PAINT AND USUALLY ONE COAT COVERS
Ceiling paint is thicker in consistancy than wall paint. It is made this way so that it can be applied to the ceiling with fewer drips and spattering from roller application.
The only way you are going to get unnoticable color differences is to buy a quality paint, and repaint the whole ceiling. If you have to do two coats, be sure to wait a minimum of 24 hours between coats. This wait is critical to avoid streaking.
Sorry, you will have to pain the entire ceiling to get a uniform color in your painting. Paint begins to age within 6 months after being applied.
yes it is especially if you use it on the ceiling.
If there is a problem with yellowing, think about priming the ceiling with a stain sealer. Now paint with a CEILING paint which is formulated to reflect light in such a way as to be very bright but no glare. Painting just one section will not/cannot do it!
Ceiling paint has more pigment, and often is tinted with a little blue to make it appear brighter. As other posters have said, paint the entire ceiling at once, wait 24 hours, and if it needs another coat, do the entire ceiling again. Good luck.
