Hello All, frequent visitor to the site and want to put out a challenge. I recently started to pull down the ceiling which consisted of 5/8 fire board in my 2 car residential garage that has a room above. This past weekend made some fire boxes for the recessed cans I plan to install. I am going with 5000K LEDs as I need the light. I plan to replace 5/8 x-code fire board drywall on the ceiling as a base and per code in my state. I am looking for a finish covering for the ceiling and have spied several ideas from metal, to cork and vinyl soffit. I was originally thinking of a peel and stick vinyl tile.
So here is the challenge: The most cost effective, easily installed and maintained finish for the ceiling. Default will be just to tape, mud, and paint.
