Here’s your friendly neighborhood painter.
We sprayed this drop ceiling with Sherwin Williams’ ProCoustic. It’s a dryfall paint specially designed for ceiling tiles and the tracks in between them.
You have to be careful with these, if you wet them too much they will sag, so we recommend 2 light coats.
It’s not often that we get to use a 6′ extension on the gun, so this was a very fun job! What wasn’t so fun was the prepping.

This was another one of those jobs where prepping was more than 80 percent of the job. As you can see, we had to put plastic everywhere! Literally everywhere! It took a real along time. What made it more challenging was the lay out of the house. All the way to the right there are stairs going downstairs all the way to the left are stairs going downstairs. So 2/3’s of the ceiling was on a second story.

We used the extension ladders to put the tape and plastic on the walls, but we did not use the extension ladders to do the actual painting. For the painting we used extension guns. A 3 feet extension gun and a 6 feet extension gun. We used the 3 feet extension gun for the area of the ceiling that was on the first story, and the 6 feet extension for the areas that were on a second story.

The six feet extension is a real awesome tool. I think I have wrote about it in past posts. It’s great for those hard to reach areas, for example this job. This job would had taken so much longer if we had to go on ladder to paint the ceiling without extensions. Nope, I don’t even want to imagine it.
