Painting A Newly Plastered Ceiling

[Oleanda]

When "mist" painting new plaster with watered down paint, how do you stop the paint running down your arm?

[bookbinder]

Use a roller, not a brush. That way, your arm is quickly out of the way of any drips.

...and use the roller on an extension rod.

................. and use an extendable pole like this..........

It'll keep you about 4 feet away from the roller ;o)

...and wear a shower cap...:-)

[ummmm]

Or wear overalls and gloves.

I've never misted a newly plastered wall. Just made sure I left it to dry out properly.

Thank you all for the advice.
