Q: What is the best paint for bathroom walls to prevent mold?

• <div><p>The best paint to prevent mold on bathroom walls is one with a glossy sheen. If you choose a satin or semi-gloss finish for a humid room such as a bathroom, its hard surface will deflect moisture rather than absorb it the way a matte or eggshell paint might. Glossy paint has the bonus of being easy to clean, which is a useful feature in a bathroom.</p></div>

Q: What is the best time of day to paint outside?

• <div><p>While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there&rsquo;s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.</p></div>

Q: Does painter’s tape leave residue over time?

• <div><p>While it is possible for painter&rsquo;s tape to leave some residue, it is designed specifically not to. If it does leave residue behind, it likely means that the painter&rsquo;s tape was left on too long after the paint dried.</p></div>

Q: Can you paint a whole wall using a brush?

• <div><p>Yes, you can paint an entire wall using just a brush. In fact, it may make the most sense on narrow walls where a roller would be impractical, but be prepared for it to take more time. We still recommend cutting in around corners and trim, then distributing paint around the rest of the wall as evenly and smoothly as possible.</p></div>

Q: Should I prime metal before painting?

• <div><p>Yes, primer is an essential step for preventing rust formation on your newly-painted metal surface. Additionally, primer can help the paint stick to the metal better and can slow down the formation of rust if you buy a rust-inhibiting primer. Just be sure to avoid water-based primers, which aren't made for metal surfaces.</p></div>
