Thank you very much!!!!!! Half of the stain I did using the spray bottle, and second part, just wiped with soaked soft clothe. Worked well, the yellow stain was almost not noticeable in 20 mins or so. I didn't put water in the bleach (because the stain was very old). Advice for people who will use the spray bottle, in addition to the plastic cap use a respirator and a swimming googles :)

Hi Todd. This works! I just watched this with my husband and we immediately got up, found an old perfume spritzer that my kid no longer uses, emptied it and put in 75% bleach and 25% water. We sprayed the amoeba looking stain and a stain that just looked like death and after one application it is gone! We will wait until they fully dry and reassess. TY so much for this tip, those stains has been bothering me for months! I swear KZfaq is the one stop shop for education on ANYTHING! TY again!

I got 3 large brown water stain spots on my ceiling. Wife had left the tap running on the top floor last week but I guess it must have seeped through eventually. Long story short, I used your technique on one of the 3 spots on your ceiling. Only after 30 mins, its mostly gone. I think it will need a 2nd application for it to completely dissapear. I did initially thought about painting my ceiling before watching your video. Anyway I just want to say a big "THANK YOU" to you. Liked and subscribed to your video :D Keep up the good work.

Thank you for the great idea I'm tackling this project tomorrow.I believe I'll also wear safety googles as well. We had a whole new roof put on, and waited quite a while to paint so the surface would be dry. Instead of buying buckets of paint to do the whole ceiling, I'm going to get a jug of bleach and try your method first because the stains are light and the surface is undamaged. if bleach doesn't work, then at least I'll l have a squeaky clean surface to paint later. Thanks again and wish me luck!!

I let the stained area dry off and I then painted the over the stain with water based anti stain paint which is white. I'm now going to paint the whole wall in yellow.
