Summary: Learn how to remove a water stain from a ceiling.

Painting over a ceiling stain
- You will first need to paint over the stain with several coats of stain block paint.
- Once the stain is no longer visible, paint over it again using your original emulsion paint.
- If you are using a ladder ensure it is secure and put a sheet on the floor to protect it from paint splashes.
