Q: Do you have to sand before using chalk paint?

• <div><p>You don&rsquo;t have to, but, on certain surfaces, sanding will allow the paint to adhere more easily.</p></div>

Q: Can you German smear over painted brick?

• <div><p>A traditional German schmear uses mortar, making it unsuitable for adherence to painted surfaces. Professionals recommend removing any existing paint before applying mortar. However, you can rough up the painted surface and clean it to test if the mortar will stick. Remember that the underlying paint's texture and color may affect the schmear's final appearance&mdash;so starting with a bare brick wall will ensure the ideal finish.</p></div>

Q: Should you paint your interior doors?

• <div><p>Whether or not you should paint your interior doors is really up to you. If you want a more natural, rustic appearance, consider staining your doors instead of painting. Note that this is often only possible for solid-core doors. If you&rsquo;re <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/can-thin-hollow-core-interior-doors-be-refinished-if-so-how-it-done.htm">finishing a hollow-core door</a>, these often come pre-primed and are meant to receive a coat of paint before going up in your home. </p></div>

Q: How many coats of whitewash do I need?

• <div><p>The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage. </p></div>

Q: Should I use paint thinner or mineral spirits to clean paint brushes?

• <div><p>You can use either paint thinner or mineral spirits to clean paint brushes, but both have distinct advantages. Paint thinners are better solvents, making them a good option if you need to clean your brushes quickly or if you are dealing with dried paint, which mineral spirits can&rsquo;t remove. On the other hand, mineral spirits have less toxicity, less odor, and lower volatility. It is safer to use indoors and doesn&rsquo;t evaporate as quickly if you need to leave the brushes to soak.</p></div>

When he quoted me, he said it would take 2-3 days. What he did get done took 2 weeks. He also claimed to be one of Home Depot's top two painters that they used to do paint jobs. When I talked to Home Depot after the fact, they told me they only sold paint. They did not quote or do painting jobs....

The one room that he did complete he used watered down paint. He took all the money and only did one room. Everytime we tried to get ahold of him after he painted the one room he has not returned our call. They couldnt even start to match the paint that he used because it was so watered down.
