Polycell -Free Ceilings Smooth Matt - 2.5 L

It covered the most stubborn cracks.

This paint covers extremely well and remains flexible so it hides hairline cracks and little defects. I JUST got one coat on a ceiling 3.5m x 2.5m from this 2.5L can. I was using a medium pile roller and applying the paint generously. The paint is very thick and I had no problems with drips. The last roller load cleaned the paint tray! I'm very happy with the finish I achieved but I only got about 3/4 of the area coverage stated on the can. A great price at Amazon too!

Polycell Crack-Free Ceilings was applied to the ceiling, I was a little bit sceptical as it was not as thick as I expected. At least three coats were needed to completely hide the crack. The product worked better on the walls where only two coats were required to hide a crack above a door. Polycell Crack-Free Ceilings is supposed to be a Matt white I found it to be have more of a silky mid-sheen finish, which helped to see where the crack was on coats three and four. It did not show when a final matt white top coat was applied. It was easy to apply with either brush or roller and a tin seems to go a long way. Depending on the ceiling applying a filler and sanding down and then painting gave the best results.

This is a really thick paint. It goes on well and does not spatter everywhere unless you really overload the roller. If your surface is rough before applying this paint then it will still be rough after you apply it so don't believe its going to miraculously cover/hide everything - it won't. It does however cover minor cracks but I don't know yet if this will be a permanent fix, you should probably still fill the crack first. Good paint though, looks a lot better than before.

Excellent on small hairline cracks that keep reappearing giving good coverage. I found a roller worked well and allowed me to push it into the cracks, once dry give it another coat and it was gone. On a larger ridge it also helped smooth it out making it not as noticeable. Good value for money as much cheaper than as a plasterer.
