probly more like 90sq. of walls eh...

A century or so has passed since 4 meters was close to average ceiling height.
Not recognising the term "coffered ceiling" I looked it up on Google images and whadya know, I'm sitting under one.

90sq of walls is about 5x5 at 4m height..
"channellling the Pleideans"
He's clearly bought a mansion and is doing up the ballroom. Hope it has a sprung floor - that'd be cool. The good news is that the coffered ceiling will be good in that there is no large, flat surface which is edge lit to show up bumps and lumps. the bad news is OP is in for a fuckton of work. an imperial fuckton too by the sounds of it.
scissor lift and lying down on your back to work on it might be the go. You will need a respirator anyway because although it sounds like there is some shit-tastic paint on top what is underneath almost certainly has lead in it.
Rather OP than me.

Nothing wrong with Resens paint, or Dulux for that matter either.
A bit pricey so sale prices or a mate with a trade account is handy...
Prep is the key to good painting. Prep sucks.

...I would go with Resene, just for the fact that they are a sponsor of the National Superbike champs...

Just had the Suffittes done here (the underside of the roof overhang) outside in White with Resene Lumberside.
Painter said its a twenty year old design that heaps of guys use and recommend when you dont know what the old paint is. He did it with 10% black tint known has 'black white' so it looks like a nice clean white but not that gharishly overly bright white plasticy look.
It came out awesome and the guy says that paint sticks to anything.
Might post pic tommorow....

Prep then airless spray.....paints paint unless you budget shit then its just white water. Resenes, Dulux etc all ok. Find where the commercial painters buy, then go there. I did and got good quality paint at half the price you get it at a mega store

I agree, Most of the top commercial painters I see go to the Dulux and Resenes outfits.

if it is a ballroom a fuckton of work seems to be the correct measure.Ifitsa"villa"there will be lead based paint somewhere!
Embracing mediocrity
If its smearing its filthy, either wash it with sugar soap before painting or prime with a good oil based sealer. Then paint with flat ceiling paint, either in black white or the same colour as the walls, was the only thing that made our 50sqm of living room ceiling look presentable. Resene still do good stuff.
