How can I stop paint from bubbling?

• <div><p>To make sure the paint won’t bubble as you apply it, make sure to paint on a day that’s cooler than 85 degrees Fahrenheit. When the temperature is too high, the paint won’t dry evenly, which can result in bubbles forming on the surface. Another way to prevent paint from bubbling is to clean the walls, apply primer, and let everything dry completely before you begin.</p></div>

Q: Can you paint stucco siding?

• <div><p>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. </p><p>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. </p><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Do painting services include wall preparation?

• <div><p>Yes, many services include patching holes, sanding, and priming. Confirm with your provider.</p></div>

Q: Can you paint hurricane shutters?

• <div><p>Yes, you can paint certain types of hurricane shutters, like Bahama or colonial shutters. However, hurricane shutters made from rollable or foldable aluminum or metal may need to be stripped and primed before applying a fresh coat of paint, so keep that in mind if you&rsquo;re looking for a certain aesthetic with your hurricane shutters.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between flat and matte paints?

• <div><p>While often used interchangeably, flat and matte paints are not the same. Flat paint has no gloss and is completely shine-free, while matte has up to 10% resin, giving it a slightly velvety appearance. That small amount of gloss in matte paint gives it a more elegant, modern appearance than flat paint, though flat paint is ideal for hiding imperfections in even the most dented, scratched, and repeatedly repaired surfaces. </p></div>
