Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

The best time to paint indoors is typically in winter. When the weather is colder outside, you receive reasonable temperatures and humidity levels inside your heated home. You’ll have better paint adhesion when humidity is at average levels or below. To avoid higher-than-average humidity, avoid repainting indoors on winter days when it’s raining or snowing outside.

Black shutters are very popular because of their versatility and the fact that they complement a variety of other colors. The other foundational color, white, is another extremely popular choice for the same reason. Both colors have the power to pack a punch, whether the rest of your home is painted deep blue or light gray.

Yes, you can paint most wall panels. In fact, many wall panels come unfinished, meaning you can stain or paint them in any color you choose. Unfinished wall panels are usually less expensive than finished panels, although you should consider the time it will take you to finish them yourself when deciding if the monetary savings are worth it. You can save some money on the labor of finishing your panels if you go the DIY route, though.

If your wall panel already has a stain or paint color on it, you can often paint over it as well. You'll just want to make sure you properly treat the area before painting.

Yes, you should prime a fiberglass bathtub before painting it. The primer improves the paint’s adhesion, strengthening and increasing the durability of the final result. While you can buy primer separately, bathtub and tile refinishing kits come with a primer designed to work with the paint and hardener.

In most cases, you’ll need two coats of paint to ensure proper coverage. If you put down a coat of primer first, you could get away with a single coat of paint, but you’ll likely still need two coats. The only exception would be if you’re painting with a light color over a dark color, in which case you may need three or four coats of paint to ensure the dark color doesn’t show through the new paint.
