Painting questions, answered by experts

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. 

No. Lacquer cannot be used over oil-based paints, as it will not adhere properly to the paint. If you are using water-based paints, sometimes called latex paints, you can use lacquer over the paint. If you want to use lacquer on something covered in an oil-based paint, you must first strip the paint or prime the surface and paint over it with a latex-based paint.

The farmhouse style is all about creating a warm and inviting space that’s relaxing and connects to nature, so natural, muted colors are best. Feel free to bring in whites, creams, grays, and light browns for wall colors. For flooring, opt for natural wood colors or darker wood stains. Choose raw materials like undyed cotton, burlap, and wool for linens, pillows, and blankets.

Latex paint 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’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.

Unless you’re using a 2-in-1 formula or painting over an existing coat of paint, it pays to apply a coat of primer ahead of your new paint. Decks see a lot of footfall and exposure to extreme and sudden temperature changes and moisture levels. The primer promotes better paint adhesion, moisture repellency, and a smoother finish, which means you’ll often need fewer coats of paint.
