Question:

Is there a product to cover surface chips from suspended ceiling tiles?

I have recently installed a new suspended ceiling. I have scraped or chipped the corners on a few of the tiles when installing it into the grid system. Is there a product available that can be used to touch-up the scraped off paint?

Answer:

armstrong and usg both make the tiles and touch up paint. it is available at most professional supply houses, not home depot or lowes.
We usually use white shoe polish to hide the brown material visible from damage in ceiling tiles. You could go through the trouble of trying to fill with a filler material but the texture will never match and it can get messy. Just use either white shoe polish or spackle that comes from Home depot in a bottle with a foam applicator pad at the end, water clean up and white color makes easy repairs
