Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

No, you shouldn't pop any paint bubbles. Doing so can trap the moisture behind the paint, creating further water damage. Instead, use a paint scraper to gently scrape off the bubbles to create a smooth surface for repainting.

No, you cannot paint over soot. Soot is a type of contaminant and if not properly removed can cause further damage to your paint and walls. Adding paint directly over soot can result in your paint color changing in appearance and potentially peeling over time. 

Many paint brands advertise as being one-coat paints. While technically true, most painting jobs still require at least two coats of paint to fully cover older paint effectively. When covering particularly dark paints with a lighter color or covering a lighter color with dark paint, three coats, and sometimes more, are often necessary to avoid streaks and spots.

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.

The color of your paint shouldn’t make it harder to apply, but it can be harder to cover in one coat, depending on the surface. Using a good quality primer that’s tinted gray will help make applying your black paint easier. Even with a primer, you will likely have to use two coats to get a perfect, solid black finish.
