Removing peeling paint from bathroom ceiling.
I just know that when I start scraping there will be spots that won't cooperate and it's going to look shitty if I paint over it.

It's latex it's moldy it's peeling

New ceiling is not an option

Any advice on removing the old paint?

Clean it, scuff the surface and skim coat it, sand / prime / paint

Do you have an exhaust fan ? If not should look at installing one, will help keep moisture down and eliminate the ceiling problems.

Thanks for those suggestions...I'll have to look into what skim coating is..
