Painting the upper surface tips
upper surface painting advice if you have removed a popcorn upper surface from a concrete slab upper surface then it is advisable that you use oil primer or oil flat paint on your new plastered upper surface. When you are using oil paint it does not dissolve and loosen the bond up in between the plaster and the concrete. The last thing you need is your plaster to fall down. Some painters use oil primer as an upper surface finish coat but if the primer is still too shiny then it is advised that you topcoat with a flat oil finish coat paint. Oil paint it takes a longer time to dry but it looks great when it is, it is dead flat not reflecting any irregularities that still might be on the upper surface from a small scratch or gouge that might be seen from a higher gloss type finish coat.
