I am going to texture my ceiling and am going to use the medium powder and water with a spray gun but my question is I have heard painters put some paint in the mix so it did not have to be painted or to make it adhear better to the ceiling. I have already put 2 good coats of good primer on the ceiling to help the compond adhear any help would be great.
I find that it is best to just keep the project simple. Keep the texture with the texture and the paint with the paint. This way you don't have to wonder if it will turn out ok or not by mixing the two together. Most of the time when people try to " cut corners" in their projects' they don't come out the way they wanted. This may not exactly answer your question that you asked, but it should point you in the right direction.
