Can you patch paint a ceiling?
Can you patch paint a ceiling? Scrape off peeling paint on the ceiling with a putty knife. Use 150-grit or higher sandpaper. Clean off any dust. Patch the peeling area with a thin layer of patching compound and putty knife. Can you touch up flat ceiling paint? Generally, a flat paint finish is the easiest to touch up, and the higher the paint sheen (the glossier the paint), the more difficult it is (if not impossible) to touch it up without leaving a visible spot. Can see patches through paint? Drywall patches showing through a finished paint job are best...
