"This was an exemplary and professional job. The staff, painters, carpenters and managers were on the job until complete. Constant contact, updates and suggestions. Ernesto, Alberto and Gian were central to the success of this project. They truly are King of the Painters, bar non. Hard workers, diligent worker and professional workers. Work well together and helped each other achieve maximum performance and effect. My wife and I loved the end results and so do my neighbors. Thank you, The King of Painters, a job well done!"

"Raul was top-notch from start to finish. His workers are amazing and I am very very happy with the results! He was reasonable and excellent at communication. I would recommend him to anyone! He uses excellent quality paint if someone is going to work that hard and repainting the whole place it should be done with the best paint."

"Saul and his crew did an excellent job painting the exterior of our house. They were clean, fast and paid attention to details. They power washed, repaired stucco, caulked all joints, masked, used drop clothes everywhere and painted stucco and trim. All painted lines were sharp and clean. They didn’t even damage any roof tiles. Couldn’t be happier and I highly recommend them."

"Eric Christensen, owner of California Coatings Painting Company, Inc., has done wonderful work for us on several different projects, including interior and exterior painting and also refinishing doors and trim. He is a highly skilled professional, who we also called in fix the incomplete or poorly done work of others. His attention to detail, patience, courtesy, friendliness, and amiable nature made him easy to work with. He also returned our phone calls and texts promptly and kept us informed as to his schedule. He arrived on time, every time, and left all work spaces clean and tidy. We would, without hesitation, recommend him to others, and we plan to request his services again in the future."

"Geoff and his team were very meticulous, professional, experienced and really good people. We were very impressed with all the prep work done before the actual painting of the exterior was started. We highly, very highly recommend Adesion painting and plan to use them for future projects."

"Supremacy Painting is appropriately named! Great customer service, easy to coordinate with, timely, great results, kind, and fairly priced. SP painted a bedroom, closet, and installed a missing baseboard section. 10/10. I’d hire again. Thank you Francisco!"

"As a contractor, I have hired Alex and Ruben for numerous jobs over a 3-year period. The jobs they completed for me were interior drywall/painting, exterior stucco repairs/painting, power washing, fence and window wrap staining, garage slab epoxying, light carpentry work (baseboards, wall extensions, door casing, and fence repairs), LVP installation, and hanging barn doors. They always showed up on time ready to work, did excellent work, and most importantly were wonderful with my customers. Since moving back to Seattle I still have customers reaching out to me and am continuing to refer them to AR Coatings due to the excellent work and customer service they have always provided. I recommend Alex and Ruben for any job from the list above."

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

Using a wire brush, forcefully scrub the surface to remove paint from metal. You’ll want to remove any lingering rust, too. For larger areas with caked-on rust, you may need to use a wire brush drill attachment. If the paint still won’t budge, apply a chemical paint stripper to the area and scrape off the paint, after following the paint stripper’s instructions.

Acetone—such as the type in nail polish remover—is a solvent that can remove paint from many surfaces, including wood. However, the acetone will also remove any finish on the wood and can stain the wood below.

The best way to remove lead paint is by wet hand sanding and removing all dust and residue with a HEPA vacuum. Professionals may also strip and scrape lead-based paint with a paint scraper. In some cases, you may choose to have a pro encapsulate or enclose your lead-based paint surface by covering it with a sealant or a new material. You may also choose to replace the material altogether.

While a pressure washer is certainly powerful enough to remove old and peeling paint, this is not a great idea to do yourself. The pressure washer is so powerful that you could actually damage the walls as you strip away the paint. It’s best to leave paint stripping to the pros. 

Most spray paints are oil-based, meaning you will need a solvent to dissolve them, like paint thinner, lacquer thinner, or acetone. While solvents can be useful in removing paint, they are also very flammable and require the use of a respirator. Beyond that, these products may smear paint and cannot be used on all surfaces.
