Q: Can I paint over peeling paint?

• <div><p>Sometimes you can get away with simply sanding and painting over small areas of peeling paint. However, the problem will likely return quickly, and the ridge between old and new paint will be visible. If you just need a quick fix and won't worry about appearance, chip away the peeling paint as much as possible, prime and paint the area, and skip the spackle step. </p></div>

Q: Does acetone remove dried paint?

• <div><p>Acetone&mdash;such as the type in nail polish remover&mdash;is a solvent that can remove paint from many surfaces, including wood. However, the acetone will also remove any finish on the wood and can stain the wood below.</p></div>

Q: Does a magic eraser remove candle wax?

• <div><p>Yes, a magic eraser can remove candle wax. You can use it to remove all the candle wax from start to finish. Another option is to remove all large clumps with a dull knife and then pull out your magic eraser to finish the job. However, while the results can be impressive, a magic eraser shouldn&rsquo;t be used on all surfaces since it can potentially damage them. If you try this method, test a small, hidden spot first and proceed cautiously.</p></div>

Q: What is the best way to remove paint from a deck?

• <div><p>The best and fastest way to remove paint from a deck often involves combining a chemical stripper with a pressure washer. Gel-based paint strippers are highly recommended because their thick consistency makes them less messy and easier to apply than liquid strippers. After applying the stripper to loosen the paint, you can use a pressure washer to efficiently wash away the residue. When using a pressure washer for this task, it's important to use a low pressure (under 1000 PSI) to avoid forcing too much moisture into the wood, which could lead to mildew or rot.</p></div>

Q: Is it OK to paint over cracked paint?

• <div><p>You can paint over cracked paint, but only if you properly sand down the damaged areas. Once the surface is as smooth as you can get it, clean the walls and let them dry before applying a new coat of paint. Painting over cracked paint without sanding or cleaning beforehand will not cover up the cracks and may even make them look worse. </p></div>

"I bought an Angie's List Deal for $200 for 8 hours of painting from Pride Decorating. Joe returned my call promptly and came out that same day to take a look at the space and let me know what would be feasible during the time period that I had paid for. He called me a couple days later to schedule.

He arrived right at the arranged time, did all the work that we discussed, cleaned up everything thoroughly.

He was professional, prompt, and easy to work with.
