Hi,
My bathroom in the vbasement is [painted with semi gloss oil paint. I tis doing great, but I have the whole room painted the same color-a yellow tint(not off white yellow). I take many showers there and I wanted siomething that'll really hold up well, and this ismdoing great.
The ceiling is about 7'2" high....what effect would my painting the ceiling again a semi gloss white have...what will it do the the room? There is a window in the room and the lighting is good......I find the yellow all around a little boxing.....please some advice would be greatly appreciated.

Most any paint will do in this environment, provided that you have adequate ventilation for the shower.
The white ceiling opposed to the wall color will tend to make the ceiling look higher.
