paint over varnish??
3 Answers
Is there something I can put on my varnished T&gG ceiling before painting it or do I have to sand it down first?
Too big a job to sand down?
Thanks in anticipation

What is probably just as important is to clean the ceiling properly before painting. I use a gargen-type sprayer with a commercial cleaner, then wipe it off with a sponge mop.
