I have water stains on my ceiling kilz just bleeds through what can i use to cover stains before painting?

There's another brand I like better than Kilz.


It's BIN 1.2.3. Try it, but yes if the area is still wet you'll need to stop what's above it that wet it.

There is a possibility that the sheetrock in that area is permanently damaged. You may want to cut the area out (go at least 3 inches past the area in all directions so you have good sheetrock to work with). Cut the area out in a square. Cut a fresh piece of sheetrock (same thickness) the same size of what you cut out of the ceiling. After you have cut the fresh sheetrock, cut an additional 1/4'; from all 4 sides of the fresh sheetrock and rip the 1/4'; piece of sheetrock from the paper backing MAKING SURE NOT TO CUT-OFF THE PAPER BACKING. Put spackle on all 4 edges of the fresh cut sheetrock and around the paper-exposed area of the fresh sheetrock. Place into square cut out in ceiling. You can secure it into place by using a piece of 1 X 2 wood and using small nails to nail the wood to the ceiling until it drys in place. The paper from the fresh sheetrock (where you removed the 1/4'; pieces)should over-lap onto the ceiling. After it drys, you can sand it with light sandpaper and paint.

Use the kilz that is oils base and make sure it is dry all the though to the back. I have seen even with the best of water stain blocker it still didn't work so what we use or do is to remove the paper on the front of the drywall and drywall mud over the spot. Use base kilz and paint. Works every time. I am a building contractor for over 30 years. Shellac is what we use to use but can leave a shining spot which we call flashing
first you need to spackle it before you paint it. When you do spackle it make sure it is fully dried before painting. You can get spackle at any hardware store.
let the kilz dry overnight then reapply another coat
Sounds like the area is still moist. I have used shellac over leak spots before with good results.
KILZ, any hardware store has it, spray or paint on.
