Its well and truely dried in now.And neither 1 of us want to have to go and buy another tin of ceiling paint to repaint the ceiling.

Is there any trade tips or some sort of paint wipes or cleaning solution that can remove the grey paint mark off the white ceiling without making a mess of the ceiling??

Thanks.:)

What about a little tester pot of white paint and go over it...they're only a couple of quid to buy.
