Should I paint the ceiling...
Hi all,

So Ive started out painting my media room (spare master bedroom) and Im wondering if I should paint the ceiling. Im not using a projection system so I dont think light reflection is a worry. The ceiling is an off white color.


So what do you think? Should I paint it or leave it as is?

THanks,

with a projector it will make a big difference but a panel tv does not suffer in the same way from in room reflections

Hiya
