How do you prepare a wall for black paint?

• <div><p>First, make sure that you tape off all the areas that you don’t want to paint black. It’s harder to paint a light color over black than to touch up any lighter spots you missed. Once you’ve taped it off, make sure that the surface is clean and smooth, and then prime the wall with a tinted primer in gray. This step will help to transition from a lighter color to a darker one.</p></div>

Can I paint over old paint?

• <div><p>You’ll often have picture-perfect results by painting over the old color. However, if you’re transitioning from a dark wall color to a light one, you’ll want to use a primer first to save yourself from applying multiple coats for coverage. Also, if you’re moving from an <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-paints-latex-vs-acrylic.htm">oil-based paint</a> to a water-based one and vice versa, you’ll want to use a primer. Don’t forget to spackle over any holes or dents before adding your new paint color.</p></div>

You'd think painting is painting, but what stood out for me was the preparation work before the paint was applied. There was a lot of scraping and priming, which should ensure the job will last. Excellent service.

"Well above expectation. Erion arrived on time to look at the project and give me his bid. He quoted me a very fair price and we agreed with a handshake. No laborious paperwork to read through and sign. I found that pretty incredible. on the agreed-upon project date he arrived on time and got to work. He moved quite a few pieces of furniture out of the room to be able to do his work. We had not discussed the fact that he was going to have to move furniture and I was sure that there would be an additional charge. There was not. The job he did was extensive and he was very neat and careful with the furniture still in the room. He did a thorough cleanup at the end of the job. IErion is a very nice man and a very hard worker. I will be telling my friends about his company. I have definitely found my new painter."

Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

No, removing the toilet isn't the only way to paint every square inch of your bathroom. Using a thin roller, paintbrush, or paint pad can enable you to apply a new color within the tight squeeze between the toilet tank and the wall. While you can remove the toilet to access the space behind, it’s often much more trouble than just taking care while painting.

No, you don’t need to apply paint primer to your wall before hanging paintable wallpaper. Manufacturers design paintable wallpaper so that the paint will adhere effectively, so primer isn’t necessary. Plus, even if you opt for a light shade of paint, you won’t have to worry about the shade underneath showing through because you are painting on a light, white surface.

Yes, you can paint a flagstone patio, but ensure you choose a durable latex paint specifically designed for outdoor use and heavy foot traffic. An elastomeric latex paint will fill in all the gaps and create a waterproof seal over the stone. Even the best products made for foot traffic can last for one to two years, on average, so be prepared to reapply paint regularly.

First, make sure that you tape off all the areas that you don’t want to paint black. It’s harder to paint a light color over black than to touch up any lighter spots you missed. Once you’ve taped it off, make sure that the surface is clean and smooth, and then prime the wall with a tinted primer in gray. This step will help to transition from a lighter color to a darker one.

You’ll often have picture-perfect results by painting over the old color. However, if you’re transitioning from a dark wall color to a light one, you’ll want to use a primer first to save yourself from applying multiple coats for coverage. Also, if you’re moving from an oil-based paint to a water-based one and vice versa, you’ll want to use a primer. Don’t forget to spackle over any holes or dents before adding your new paint color.
