Q. I have 12-by-12 tiles on my ceilings throughout our home. They are made of a soft wood fibre type of material. Some are acoustic with holes, others are just plain white. I want to clean them up or paint them any suggestions would be helpful?
A. To clean them up it's best to paint them rather than washing since washing may blemish the surface or smudge the white colour. To paint, first wash using a sponge with my Shell Busey's Home Cleaning Formula and rinse well with clear water. When dry apply Cloverdale Paint's "Pro-Fresh" ceiling paint using a nylon or polyester brush. Paint seams and cutting to the wall, followed by a "foam slit roller" for the rest of the ceiling to finish the project.
