Re: [OT] Ceiling!

["Martyn Wendon" <martynwendon@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

A couple of coats of polycell stainstop should do the job..... it's
expensive (20 odd notes for a 5 litre tin I think) but I've used it in the
past for similar problems.  I think it's also available in a spray can but
I've not used that type only the brush on stuff.
