I painted my ceiling today

Painted it white. Two coats. I was sweating a lot due to the heat, and my hand cramped a few times.

I have 800ml of white paint left over and now I'm looking to use it elsewhere

Edit: Okay I just gave the kitchen a second coat (it needed one from months back), and then used the remaining on the room again. I've finished all the paint!

Just little white spots here and there, keep them on the ropes. They'll blame the pigeons, but deep down they'll know

I bought frog tape with the idea that I would tape up the borders and paint up to it.

That was too much effort as I realised that you can paint quite easily up to the border by flexing a brush and don't need to be that diligent about it

Indeed. In another life I could have been a surgeon, or really boring when fingering someone

Nice work

Well done, I couldn't even do that (am not allowed to work overhead). But from when I could, it was very unpleasant.

Pop ceiling or not? I've been mudding lightly and hoping to paint this weekend.

Nah just multifinish smooth, which is a shame because I love the terracotta style and colour of a nice multifinish

Hell yeah, brother!
