"Growing up i always wanted the typical American lifestyle. Open yard, picket fence, little dog the whole works. Although, im not fully there yet. Tru Tone has helped me further the progress of my dream. Sadly, I was not blessed with being a painter. So, when I needed to have my newly purchased home renovated I took the internet and began searching. After discovering a few up and coming contractors I stumbled upon Tru Tone and it was honestly a great decision. The woman in charge was very knowledgeable, helpful, and had a very good attitude towards me fulfilling my dream and making my vision come to life. I would recommend this service to anyone because not only was the service provided great but also their manner in handling their business which seems to be a rarity nowadays."

"Tony was consciencious about providing an accurate quote. When he found something underneath that needed fixing, he contacted me even though it was only $60. His final bill was the original quote plus that $60, no more. The work was quality and he spent time repairing in the cold and working around the rain when it got to the painting. He did some difficult repair work and sealed my house from the weather, after it was damaged. He was good at returning calls and keeping me informed of progress and plans. I highly recommend him."

"I had two rooms painted recently and I’m so happy with how they turned out! She was extremely kind, respectful, and treated my home like her own. She took her time making sure everything was covered and cleaned up perfectly when she was finished. The color looks beautiful and completely brightened up my space — it honestly feels like a whole new home. It’s such a good feeling walking into those rooms now. I’d recommend KC Precision Painting in a heartbeat!"

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

The biggest issue with painting your interior walls with exterior paint isn’t the way the paint looks or performs—it’s the lack of ventilation. The higher quantities of VOCs in exterior paint will have a harder time dispersing in an enclosed space, so do everything you can to direct them out—like turning on a fan and opening your windows and doors. Afterward, you can simply prime and redo your walls with interior paint, and no one will know the difference.

Yes, you can paint over old exterior paint, but success depends on the condition of the existing paint and proper surface preparation. If the previous coating is in good shape (not cracked, peeling, or flaky), you can paint over it with less prep work. However, for the most durable and professional-looking results, follow these key preparation steps:

  • Clean the Surface: Thoroughly clean the exterior to remove all dirt, grime, and mildew. A pressure washer can be very effective for this.

  • Scrape and Sand: If the old paint is peeling, cracked, or flaky, you must scrape off all loose paint. After scraping, sand the surface to create a smooth, even base for the new paint. Sanding is especially important for wood siding.

  • Apply Primer: Using a quality exterior primer is highly recommended. It ensures the new paint adheres properly, improves durability, and provides a uniform finish. If you are painting a lighter color over a dark one, a tinted primer will help cover the old color more effectively.

Some brands offer paint-and-primer-in-one products for convenience. Taking the time to prepare the surface properly will not only increase your home's curb appeal but also help protect your siding and extend its life.

You can apply waterproofing over paint, but you won't get as much protection as you would if you painted the surface with a waterproof paint from the get-go. Not all waterproofing methods are compatible with painted surfaces, and they may not adhere well. This is especially true if the paint is glossy, old, or flaking. Waterproofing sealers are primarily meant to be applied to porous surfaces, like concrete, wood, or brick. 

Soot can be harder to remove compared to other types of stains given its acidic nature. It can also cause underlying paint to peel off during the cleaning process. If your soot issue is a result of smoke damage, it’s recommended you call a pro to help remove it versus doing it yourself.

While the above methods will help you remove paint from tiles, you may need to take a different approach to get rid of grout haze. If you’ve recently applied the grout, you may be able to wipe it off with a wet cloth. Otherwise, you can try removing it with a rubber grout float, spraying it with a mixture of four parts water to one part vinegar, or using a store-bought grout haze remover.
