Moved into a property 18 months ago and have been doing it up...... This is the last thing to tackle.

It's a sunroom ceiling that is very dated in TnG pine varnished (though not shiny). Don't really want to go to the expense of tearing down the ceiling but would just like to paint it. Any suggestions on what to use?

Thanks.

I remember being very proud and pleased with my efforts in 1983 when I installed a similar T&G pine ceiling in out then kitchen.  

How times and tastes change.

It'll come round again - most things do

I think it already is.  Not in that particular colour, perhaps.

However tempting, the OP should avoid Artex
