Q: What kind of paint do you use on wood panels?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-clean-paintbrush-after-using-latex-paint.htm">Latex paint</a> is a good option to use on wood panels because it's user-friendly and easy to find in home improvement stores. It comes in a variety of finishes ranging from high-gloss to flat. Depending on the amount of paneling, a professional painter&rsquo;s favorite is often a satin or eggshell finish. They add a bit of sheen and shine, but not too much. Latex paint is also water-based, so cleanup is quick, and you can easily scrub your brushes clean.</p></div>

Q: How long do painted tiles last?

• <div><p>How long painted tiles last ultimately comes down to the quality of the paint job and how much wear and tear the tiles get. It&rsquo;s possible the paint job will only last about six months if the tiles are in a high-traffic area and they weren&rsquo;t properly cleaned, sanded, and primed prior to painting and sealing. Well-painted tiles in a low-traffic area should last at least a year.</p></div>

Q: How does improper hanging affect artwork?
