Fyi if using zinsser permawhite I wouldn't roller it I'd only brush it. I tried to roller it previously and it bubbled up.

That's interesting - just checked what I have and it is permawhite. I rolled, no issues

Edit: I also royally ballsed up the tin so the lid doesn't seal properly and it is probably 80% full.

Must be whatever was under it - I went straight onto brand new boarded/lined plasterboard.

Interesting. I used it in my last house too and it went on fine with a roller.

Hmm weird it was a skimmed ceiling which I had done a mist coat on. Fair enough.
