Wash the walls with an aggressive cleaner and then seal them with stain-blocking primer to ensure that stains don’t creep through later. Apply two coats of top-quality latex paint to get the walls looking, and smelling, good again. Move the furniture away from the walls.Click to see full answer. Then, how do you paint a nicotine stained ceiling?Applying paint directly over top of the remaining stains or odor will not cover them up. You’ll need to apply a good, solvent-based stain-blocking primer to prevent them from bleeding through the paint. You may be able to get by with a product such as Zinsser’s Cover Stain, which is an oil-based stain-blocking primer.Secondly, can you paint over smoke smell? Painting may camouflage some or even all of the stains (if you use a dark enough color). BUT, it will NOT take care of the odor. Paint is porous, so the nicotine smell will permeate through the paint. Instead, you need to remove the surface odor and then seal in the remaining odor with a primer. Beside above, can you paint over nicotine stained ceilings? Most coatings don’t do a good job of covering nicotine or other smoke stains on your ceilings. If you apply a coat of ordinary white ceiling paint, the stain will continue to bleed through — and even a second coat may not hide it.Will nicotine stains bleed through paint?Nicotine is water soluble. If you paint over it with a water soluble primer or paint, it will immediately bleed through as a yellow stain! The Original Kilz or Cover Stain, or BIN by Zinsser are excellent. Kilz and Cover Stain are oil based, BIN is shellac based (alcohol).
