Q: Can you just paint over soot?

• <div><p>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. </p></div>

Q: Do you need primer for satin paint?

• <div><p>Because satin paint has a sheen to it, it will highlight curves and contours. While that&rsquo;s great for trim, it&rsquo;s not so excellent for your repaired drywall that has a few small blemishes. In addition, satin paint will stick to your surface better if it&rsquo;s primed. Sand and prime your surface before applying satin paint for best results.</p></div>

Q: Can you paint over already painted furniture?

• <div><p>Depending on the piece, there are times when you can paint over painted furniture. Start by applying a high-adhesion primer so that the new topcoat will stick. However, if the paint is peeling or chipping, it&rsquo;s best to sand it down, use a paint stripper, or try a deglosser to ensure your new paint will adhere.</p></div>

Q: Do services include repainting?

• <div><p>Yes, many repair services include repainting to match the existing siding color.</p></div>

He's very professional to deal with and can do any kind of painting I can think of. We were more than satisfied with what he did to the interior of our house. If we had wooden siding instead of vinyl, I'd have hired him to paint that as well. Any paint projects come up in the future...
