Q: Do professional painters prep walls?

• <div><p>A professional painter will typically prep the walls to ensure a longer-lasting, smoother paint job. Prepping the walls can involve scraping off debris or flaked paint, filling in grooves or nail holes, sanding, cleaning, applying a coat of primer, taping the trim, and removing outlet covers. You should ask your painter before hiring about their process to make sure it&rsquo;s in line with your expectations and needs.</p></div>

Q: Do you use a roller or brush to paint textured walls?

• <div><p>Use a roller with a high nap to paint into the textured dips and cover the raised sections of your walls without leaving any sections uncovered. After applying paint using the high-nap roller, you use a paintbrush to cover any missed spots. Applying two or three coats of paint using this method should provide plenty of coverage.</p></div>

Q: How long does paint take to cure?

• <div><p>Generally, interior paint takes up to <b>one month</b> to fully cure. Factors like temperature, humidity, the type of paint you used, and the surface you painted over will affect how long it takes. In particularly dry areas, your paint will cure in 30 days, whereas humid locations may take more than a month. While paint may feel dry to the touch in a matter of hours, it takes much longer for it to cure, so be careful around newly painted surfaces within the first 30 days after painting.</p></div>

Q: What type of finish should I use?

• <div><p>A finishing layer is an important step in the staining process. A top coat helps make a stain last longer by protecting it from spills, scratches, and natural weathering.</p><p>A lacquer finish is thin, fast-drying, and best used for cabinets, molding, and trim. It&rsquo;s not recommended for outdoor furniture. Another option is varnish, which has a glossy finish with a protective film and is often used on outdoor wood objects. Polyurethane, known as &ldquo;liquid plastic,&rdquo; dries quickly but doesn&rsquo;t hold up well in the heat. Lastly, a shellac finish adds a warm tint to wood but is affected by heat.</p></div>

Q: Can I mix ceiling paint with wall paint?

• <div><p>You should not mix ceiling paint with wall paint. The results will be unpredictable, and you might end up with a finish that doesn&rsquo;t perform well on either surface. For example, the flatness of the ceiling paint may hamper the durability of the wall paint. It&rsquo;s best to use each type of paint as intended to get the best look and more longevity. </p></div>

They did an amazing job! You can never tell the vehicle was even wrecked. Everything matches up perfectly, the paint, seams, everything. They finished the work in a week exactly. Plus, they kept me notified on the progress of the repair. A+ in my book.

They did an impeccable job and made the carpets look like new. Prompt, professional, courteous and uniformed. Very careful to protect the freshly painted baseboards from their hoses. I would recommend anyone give this carpet cleaning company a call before replacing their carpet.
