In the time of our grandmothers, the ceiling and walls were covered with an aqueous solution of chalk or slaked lime. Of course, this is an environmentally friendly and natural material, but it is hardly suitable for modern renovation. Today's choice of interior building materials is wide and varied.
Which brand of paint is better? Inexpensive coatings from a Russian manufacturer, or widely advertised products? Is it possible to use the same composition for the bathroom ceiling and bedroom walls? Or do you still need a different type of coverage? How to choose a finish that will last? For a non-professional builder, these questions always cause difficulties. Let's try to sort out these questions, and also determine which ceiling paint is better.
What you need to know about paints and varnishes?
Let's look at the variety of paints and varnishes and decide what to look for in order to avoid mistakes when choosing:
- The texture of the paint can be matte, semi-gloss and glossy. Matte finish will add sophistication and nobility to the room, while the shine of the glossy texture will visually expand a small space.
- The liquid does not mask surface imperfections well and makes imperfections more visible, so the ceiling must be perfect. A matte or semi-gloss composition works best to disguise imperfections.
- Water-based finishing is only suitable for residential, heated premises, as it contains water and does not tolerate freezing.
- More expensive brands are more economical than cheaper ones. This is due to the consumption of material per 1 m².
- The popularity of a brand can play a cruel joke. Low-quality fakes are very common, expensive in price, but disappointing after repair. At the same time, little-known manufacturers produce high-quality new products at inexpensive prices in order to occupy their niche in the market.
- The container usually contains an indication that the paint is for the ceiling only. If the manufacturer does not specify, it means that the composition is universal and fits well on walls.
- There is no need to worry if a tint appears when working with snow-white paint. A responsible manufacturer adds pigment for visual control of unpainted areas of the surface. After drying, the paint will acquire the desired color.
- Glossy materials have a smooth texture, create a mirror effect and expand rooms; after drying, they can be washed with a damp cloth.
- Matte textures have a porous structure and are difficult to clean, but can mask minor imperfections in the base.
Selection rules
When deciding which paint to choose for the ceiling, it is necessary to take into account the quality of the original surface, operating conditions of the room, budget, and strength characteristics of the material.
A competent approach to purchasing involves assessing all the most important criteria.
- Plasticity of the material. The presence of plasticizers in the composition prevents cracking when drying or deformation of the base during the heating season.
- Suitability for cleaning. Most modern beauties create a coating suitable for wet cleaning. This criterion is important when choosing if painting is the finishing layer and the repair is being done for a long period.
- Covering power. It is important that the paint applies evenly to the surface, covering the ceiling with a dense layer.
- Consistency. Too thin a consistency results in reduced coverage and requires the application of more layers. If it is too thick, it lays down in a thick layer and covers the surface better, but leads to waste of material.
- Price. Pricing policy plays an important role when choosing materials. Depending on the design features, preference should be given to manufacturers in the middle and expensive price segments. Paints that are too cheap have poor performance and can ruin the repair.
- Manufacturer. The market offers paints from imported and domestic manufacturers. The choice is made based on reviews and experiences of other users and specialists.
The best ceiling paint is flexible, easy to apply, has a high hiding power and is low in consumption. This material guarantees a reliable coating with high aesthetic characteristics.
Features of paint types
According to construction and sanitary standards, ceilings and walls are covered with environmentally friendly, quick-drying, odorless compounds. To obtain a uniform and uniform coating, brushes, rollers or spray guns are used. After drying, the surfaces can be washed.
Water-based composition
It replaced lime whitewash and is still popular due to its natural composition and inexpensive price. It is made on a water basis without a strong odor; drops can be easily removed with a damp cloth even after drying. It applies easily and evenly to plaster and putty, holds well and does not crumble. Manufacturers produce it in a standard white color; you can add a certain amount of color to give it a tint. The disadvantages include instability to moisture.
Water-dispersion coating
The characteristics are similar to water-based emulsion and are resistant to abrasion and moisture. Some brands contain antiseptic and antifungal additives and can be used to paint walls and ceilings in bathrooms and other rooms with high humidity. The paint and varnish material is also suitable for processing wooden bases. After application, a breathable film is formed that protects against rotting.
Acrylic composition
A more expensive option, but often used to decorate ceilings and slopes. The high-quality structure can withstand repeated washing without losing the decorative effect, and does not fade in the sun, even if there is a color tint.
A variety of ready-made color solutions are available for sale; additional tinting is not required. When applied, the acrylate mixture is lighter and gradually gains color as it dries. The dense and viscous consistency perfectly masks minor defects, dries quickly and has no pungent odor.
The disadvantage can be considered a long period of gaining full strength within 30 days. At this time, the painted surface requires careful handling, otherwise the layer will be damaged. However, if the ceiling is covered with acrylic, this property is not of great importance.
Latex composition
One of the most expensive solutions among paints and varnishes. This is due to its excellent strength characteristics. It is resistant to mechanical interactions and repeated washing. The elastic film lies evenly on any base (concrete, wood, plaster), providing a good decorative effect. The structure of the liquid is gas permeable and, after drying, allows air to pass through well.
It is odorless, non-toxic, and can be applied even with the windows closed. The room does not require ventilation, so repairs are possible in the cold season. Dries very quickly, within two hours.
A small disadvantage of latex paint is the rapid growth of bacteria and mold on it. When used in rooms with high humidity, additional priming of the wall with antifungal compounds is required.
Unfortunately, it is not resistant to ultraviolet radiation. With a constant flow of light, it fades, and at low temperatures, it cracks and peels off.
Silicone compounds
An emulsion of water and silicone resins provides the most reliable coating, but also the most expensive. It has high stability and long-term operation inside buildings and on external walls, and can also be used for enclosed spaces with high humidity.
It lies on any surface, even an unprepared one, and hides minor flaws in the base. Odorless, environmentally friendly, prevents the development of mold, has a high degree of resistance to ultraviolet radiation. The film is waterproof, but breathable, and can be washed with water without losing its visual appeal.
Negative values and temperature changes do not destroy silicone coatings. The high price is also justified by its economical consumption; the paint is applied in one layer.
The downside of such emulsions is their incompatibility with other paints and varnishes; the application process requires special clothing and a respirator to protect the respiratory system. In addition, such a mixture cannot be washed off.
Reviews
Larisa, 38 years old, Krasnodar region.
When we started renovating the house, we decided to convert one of the rooms into a nursery. We bought the paint in the store without going into too much detail about the quality - the color was just right. Fortunately, the seller warned that it has an unpleasant odor. As a result, they changed it to latex, since it has no smell. We were satisfied.
Nikita, 43 years old, Smolensk.
We have wooden ceilings in our house, so there were some difficulties with the choice of paint. But my friend advised me to take a latex one. We listened to the advice - and we were right. This was a real salvation for us - the surface turned out perfect. In addition, it dries very quickly.
Alina, 29 years old, Pushkino.
I painted the ceiling in the kitchen with latex paint. I thought for a long time, selected various options and settled on it. I’m very pleased with the paint: it’s easy to work with, it applies well, and hides even small cracks. In addition, it does not have an unpleasant odor, like most paints. Another plus is that I can now easily wash the ceiling.

Choosing the right paint for the kitchen and bedroom
There is no universal composition. For each room you need to choose your own type of covering. There are several criteria for choosing the right ceiling covering for any room.
- Operational stability - the paint should not crumble or lose its attractiveness over a long period of time.
- Resistance to dry and wet cleaning - the finish must retain its aesthetic appeal after cleaning.
- Easy and uniform application helps to mask small defects in the base and is economical in consumption.
- Waterproofness and light resistance are especially important in rooms with high humidity or located on the sunny side.
- An acceptable price plays an important role in the renovation budget. Sometimes the use of expensive materials is not justified, or it is quite possible to find a budget replacement.
- Appearance - paint improves the appearance of the ceiling, making it more aesthetically attractive.
When looking through the options for the desired coating for the kitchen and bathroom, there are additional factors that require attention. In such rooms there is a constant high level of humidity, even with the presence of exhaust ventilation. Temperature changes occur, especially in winter, due to cooking and ventilation.
Soot and grease deposits accumulate on the walls and ceiling. In the bathroom, soap solution residues and dust particles can accumulate on the ceiling. In such places with high humidity and warmer air, mold and fungal outbreaks often form.
For rooms with special conditions, latex, silicone, and silicate emulsions are suitable. Especially with additional antifungal additives.
In a bedroom or living room located on the sunny side, it is better not to apply latex compounds that are not resistant to the sun. Affordable acrylic materials with a wide range of colors are suitable.
The best manufacturers offer many different options for painting ceilings. Decide on the specific room where the renovation will be carried out, its functionality and choose the right composition based on the capabilities of your wallet.

An excellent solution for final decoration. "Dulux 3D White" has a dazzling white color that cannot be compared with analogues. It contains optical brightener and pieces of marble, which provide such pronounced whiteness. A room painted in this shade visually expands, and its ceilings seem higher.

- Marble particles and optical brightener in the composition allow you to achieve the whitest possible color
- Provides a 3D effect and visually expands the space
- Easy to clean
- Does not flow, does not form streaks

Wall painting design
There are a lot of options for painting walls, because there are no restrictions on quantity. It is important to find the right suitable color combination when painting your walls. The easiest way to do this is to select shades according to the tables that designers use. They contain groups of shades that can be used in one room, while the interior will be harmonious.
Now about the methods of combined painting of walls. There are quite a lot of them, they will look different in the interior. Choose the one you like.
Horizontal division into two or three zones
This method is traditional. Usually the room is divided into two zones. At the bottom they paint with darker shades, at the top with lighter shades. The classic version is divided into three parts by height - the lower third is painted with a dark shade, the upper two are lighter. But this is just a classic; in reality, the dark paint can end in the middle or almost at the ceiling. You just need to be careful with this technique: it visually makes the ceilings lower. The exception is a light strip almost under the ceiling.
Painting a room in two colors: horizontal division
The border between two colors, if you paint the walls in an apartment yourself, is rarely ideal. To decorate the imperfections, you can glue a molding or some even stripes. Another option is to apply masking tape evenly along the border before applying the second shade. After painting, remove it, you will get a perfect line (if you applied the tape evenly).
The molding can be left white - it goes with any colors, or it can be painted in one of the suitable colors
This technique can be used in premises of any purpose, and the style can be of any kind. Only with moldings - this is more of a classic, it is acceptable for country style, for one of the ethnic styles. Just a clear border or a division decorated with a shiny stripe is already minimalism or hi-tech.
Accentuating a wall
A fashionable trend in decorating rooms is highlighting a wall with color. There are two options here:
- a darker shade of the same color;
- another color from a compatible palette.
With well-chosen details in the interior, both methods look attractive. This is the easiest way to make the interior more memorable and vibrant.
A bright color from the same palette is the easiest way to brighten up your interior.
Just keep in mind that in bedrooms, for example, it is better to use less harsh combinations - the atmosphere in such rooms should be softer. Sharp contrasts are good in living rooms and children's rooms. Children generally like bright combinations.
The colors in the bedrooms are calmer
Horizontal stripe
This is a fairly wide strip that runs approximately at eye level. Most often, this type of painting of a room is used if it is necessary to pay attention to some decorative elements - paintings, for example.
A wide horizontal stripe is another way to paint a room in two colors.
This technique looks good in corridors - by lowering the height of the ceiling, it makes it seem wider. Another popular application is children's rooms: children's drawings look very good against a prominent background.
The stripe does not have to be monochromatic - a slight gradient is also good
Striped walls
An interesting technique, but it’s not worth using it for the entire room. This way you can decorate one wall - one of the varieties of an accent wall - or just part of it.
Horizontal stripes can be multi-colored. The main thing is that they are repeated in the interior
An interesting effect is achieved by combining stripes of the same color, but with different textures - matte and glossy. Strictly speaking, these are not two colors, but they look exactly like that.
Combination of matte and glossy paint stripes
Highlighting some interior details
Often, some details are emphasized with a different color - brighter or calmer. For example, niches, frames, placement of an interesting shelf, etc.
Highlighting some elements is another way to combine painting a room.
One option is to outline the walls with a stripe of a darker color, thus highlighting all the corners. This method will help make a small room more spacious: it will appear taller and wider.

Tips for painting the ceiling with water-based emulsion
- Primer of the surface before painting is required. It will not only ensure the strength of the paint layer, but will also significantly reduce its consumption.
- Layers of paint are applied at right angles to each other. The final layer should run parallel to the sun's rays, away from the window. This way the inevitable small irregularities will be less noticeable.
- A roller should be preferred over a brush. It gives a more even coat of paint. The best rollers for water-based paint are long-pile rollers: water-based paint bubbles on foam rubber, while short-pile rollers pick up too little of it.
- During the painting process, a paint tray will be very useful: you can not only dip a roller into it, you can also roll it out on it.
This simple and inexpensive tool will save a lot of time.
- It is necessary to roll out the roller, and NOT on the ceiling: otherwise the coloring will be uneven.
- It is better to paint the room in one step in a minimum amount of time: fresh paint covering a dried area will stand out as an untidy stripe.
- Two thin coats dry faster, give a more uniform finish and require less paint than one thick coat.
To achieve uniform coloring, apply the paint in thin layers.
