Is it okay to wash paint brushes in the sink?

• <div><p>You can clean water-based paint from brushes in the sink and allow the waste water to go down the drain. However, one<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/home-painting-tips.htm"> tip to remember during a painting project</a> is that it's illegal to allow oil-based paint or its cleaning solutions, even organic ones, down the drain and into the sewer system.</p></div>

Q: How to paint so it looks smooth?

• <div><p>If you want your paint to have a smooth finish, the technique you use is very important. Keep your brush at a 90-degree angle while applying the paint and feather as you go. Between coats, sand the wall lightly using a very high grit sand sponge of at least 220 grit.</p></div>

Q: What is the fastest way to paint a room?

• <div><p>Consider skipping the primer if possible; it's only necessary if you need to cover something up, such as a stain or a porous surface, or if you want to switch from a dark color to a light one. If you have a steady hand and are a precise painter, you may want to consider skipping the painter&rsquo;s tape. Instead, carry a damp rag with you as you paint to quickly wipe away any mistakes.</p></div>

Q: Do I need to prime paintable wallpaper before painting?

• <div><p>No, you don&rsquo;t need to apply <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/quick-primer-interior-painting.htm">paint primer</a> to your wall before hanging paintable wallpaper. Manufacturers design paintable wallpaper so that the paint will adhere effectively, so primer isn&rsquo;t necessary. Plus, even if you opt for a light shade of paint, you won&rsquo;t have to worry about the shade underneath showing through because you are painting on a light, white surface.</p></div>

Q: Can you paint a metal awning?

• <div><p>Yes, using oil-based paints is an effective way to paint new metal awnings or update old ones. However, with the wide variety of pre-made kits available now, you might consider just upgrading or purchasing the color of metal awnings you wish instead of painting. </p><p>If your old awnings are still in good shape, painting might make sense. As an added bonus, painting an aluminum awning may also help prevent corrosion.</p></div>

Micheal, the owner of the company was great to work with. Micheal did a great job on the drywall repairs, painting the ceiling, trim and walls! He started the project on time and he finished on time. We will definitely have him back again to help us with our home remodel!

Jerry is a very nice guy. He seems to really like what he does, but the quality of the work is where things go down hill. The job was supposed to take 4 to 5 days. He and his guys (both are son in-laws from what I recall) would show up on time but always be in a hurry to leave by 2 or 3pm....

The work on the hood went so well that we contracted with Bowles to paint the exterior of our house. The steel siding had faded badly over the previous 30-some years. We had been considering having it painted, but were hesitant because of the metal surface. Bowles explained the electrostatic...
