"We bought an old house that had walls cracking, green brush did a great job fixing those issues for us to paint, then we looked up and saw the atrocious popcorn ceiling and called Green Brish again. They smoothed, sanded, knocked out an ugly archway, and painted. It was a huge improvement for us, small improvements made a big difference."

Painting questions, answered by experts

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.

The best finish for wrought iron railings is either a semi-gloss or a gloss sheen, as each offers good durability against rain, wind, heat, cold, and snow. 

Yes, you can paint over already painted metal, but—before painting—you’ll want to use sandpaper on the area to achieve a rough surface. This helps prevent the paint from peeling or flaking. Remove damaged paint with 120-grit sandpaper. If the paint is in good condition, use 240-grit sandpaper. Brush off any dust before applying the primer. 

If you are caulking, painter’s tape should be removed before the caulk starts to set. It only takes 30 to 60 minutes for the caulk to dry, so this should be done fairly quickly.

Using different finishes within a room is the norm. For example, you might use eggshell on the walls, semi-gloss on the trim and doors, and flat on the ceiling. This creates contrast and highlights architectural details while allowing for better durability in high-touch areas. Just make sure to use a trim color that complements your walls.
