I have a room that has some unique challenges: asymmetrical wall mount, a soffit in between the projector and said wall, and a fair amount of ambient light. The wall I have for the screen has a post on one side of it jutting out about 3.5" off the main wall surface (see picture). The distance between the left edge of the post on the left and the white door on the right is 86". Can I float a piece of 6mm Sintra so I can use all of this space? Would I need to have a black boarder on the sintra in this case? Sintra is $50 in my area and I can get them to cut the screen to my exact specs.
The projector calculator says I need to place the pj at 8'8" for a 92" screen (this would result in 36fl. Is this setup too bright?) and with no boarder for an 86" screen at 9'4" (31 fl). The room is 14' deep and this would put the pj directly over the coffee table which is nice because I assume I will have to use a drop down mount to overcome the roughly 7" soffit in the way towards the screen.
Given the above, what paint would anyone recommend for my application? I am open to other projectors as well (we don't watch any 3d) if the BenQ doesn't work out (I like the bang for the buck though). We watch Uverse tv, some netflix, PS3 and Blurays. Appreciate the feedback.
