What kind of paint do you use on fiberglass?

• <div><p>Fiberglass bathtubs require paint that can withstand repeated exposure to water and humidity. Additionally, they require a high-strength epoxy coating to protect the paint from water. A few brands make appropriate paints, some in spray cans.</p><p>However, kits are the best choice because they come with everything you need (with instructions) to ensure a durable finish. These kits may require mixing the paint with a hardener that gives it the strength to withstand repeated water exposure. </p></div>

Q: Do I need to use a special paint to paint over stained wood?

• <div><p>Since you&rsquo;ll be going back over an oil-based paint (stain or varnish), you need the proper material for good adhesion. Using an oil primer is critical to ensuring that the longevity of your work stands the test of time. You can apply any type of paint (oil or latex paint) on top of an oil primer after it has cured.</p></div>

Q: What is the best paint to paint over wallpaper?

• <div><p>While you could conceivably select <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/sheen-confusion-choosing-best-paint-finish.htm">any paint finish</a>, paintable wallpaper tends to look its best with a flat or eggshell finish. A higher gloss paint might make the texture pop more, but it can look a bit dated once the paint has dried. And don&rsquo;t worry about whether a water-based latex paint will loosen the wallpaper. Paintable wallpaper has a coating that prevents this from happening, so using latex paints without applying an oil-based primer to seal things first is fine.</p></div>

Q: What kind of paint roller gives the smoothest finish?

• <div><p>A foam roller or a roller with a very short nap will give you the smoothest finish, especially when working with glossy paints. Thicker rollers will leave a slight texture on the wall, and shiny paint will reflect light, highlighting the imperfections.</p></div>

Q: Can I paint a metal roof myself?

• <div><p>While DIY is possible, professionals ensure proper adhesion, even coating, and the use of high-quality, weather-resistant paints.</p></div>
