Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

You should use either a 3:1 or 4:1 ratio of paint to paint thinner in most cases. The amount of paint should always be higher than the amount of paint thinner.

When you hire a professional painter, this expert may use a paint sprayer to repaint a room instead of a roller and brushes. Using a paint sprayer versus a roller for a DIY job can be tough for a beginner. The cost of renting or buying a sprayer will be higher than buying rollers and brushes. It can be tough to ensure even coverage with a sprayer when you’re a beginner. Avoiding splatters and overspray in other areas of the room can be difficult, too. Sprayers will save a lot of time, though.

You can use paint rollers up to five times with proper care. Reusing paint rollers up to five times shouldn't affect the quality of the paint application, but if you try to use it any more than that your paint job will not be as smooth. You can use roller frames and paint trays indefinitely.

It is possible to paint stucco siding. Painting stucco offers the advantages of providing a refreshed appearance and matching the patched area with the rest of the painted structure. However, there are some considerations to keep in mind. 

Painting the entire structure, including stucco patches, can make it more challenging to reapply stucco in the future if desired. Stucco is a breathable material that allows moisture to evaporate, while paint can create a barrier, potentially trapping moisture. 

To minimize these risks, it's important to choose high-quality breathable paint and ensure proper surface preparation. Before deciding to paint stucco, careful consideration should be given to the long-term implications and desired aesthetic.

You can wallpaper and paint over certain types of wallpaper, but it’s usually a better idea to remove it first. Removing the wallpaper and prepping the wall before painting is a good way to guarantee a smooth finish that looks professional. If you ever have a moisture or water issue after painting over wallpaper, the paper will bubble and damage your wall. Additionally, you should never paint over wallpaper already peeling or otherwise damaged, as this will leave obvious imperfections in your wall and could lead to additional problems.
