Q: When should I use three coats of paint?

• <div><p>You should use three coats of paint when applying to a heavily textured or porous surface. Sometimes painting a lighter color over a darker color requires three coats of paint or more to achieve full, even coverage. Trim or baseboards should also get three coats of paint.</p></div>

Q: How much do different types of paint cost?

• <div><p>The type of paint and finish you choose impacts the overall cost of your painting project. Some of the most common types of paint include:</p><ul><li><p>Primer: $10&ndash;$20 per gallon</p></li><li><p>Flat or matte finish: $10&ndash;$70 per gallon</p></li><li><p>Eggshell or satin finish: $12&ndash;$72 per gallon</p></li><li><p>Semi-gloss finish: $14&ndash;$74 per gallon</p></li><li><p>High-gloss finish: $16&ndash;$76 per gallon</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What is the best paint finish for painted shutters?

• <div><p>While flat and satin finishes are ideal for <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/choose-right-finish-your-front-door.htm">garage or front doors</a>, siding, and trim, gloss and semi-gloss are more common on shutters. That&rsquo;s because these types of finishes highlight this proportionally smaller exterior home feature, adding both contrast and layers of texture to the overall facade. Other types of finishes aren&rsquo;t off limits, but you&rsquo;ll have more success by choosing one that provides a nice sheen. </p></div>

Q: How long should you air out your house after painting?

• <div><p>After painting, air out the painted area for at least 48 to 72 hours by opening windows and using fans, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission. The process helps disperse volatile organic compounds (VOCs) the paint emits, reducing their concentration indoors. However, in some cases, especially with oil-based paints, airing out for extended periods may be necessary. Monitor air quality and continue ventilation until paint fumes dissipate significantly.</p></div>

Q: Can you paint wall panels?

• <div><p>Yes, you can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-paint-wall-paneling.htm">paint most wall panels.</a> In fact, many wall panels come unfinished, meaning you can stain or paint them in any color you choose. Unfinished wall panels are usually less expensive than finished panels, although you should consider the time it will take you to finish them yourself when deciding if the monetary savings are worth it. You can save some money on the labor of finishing your panels if you go the DIY route, though.</p><p>If your wall panel already has a stain or paint color on it, you can often paint over it as well. You'll just want to make sure you properly treat the area before painting.</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...

"Great hire. Mr. Galvan came, assessed the job and gave me an estimate the same day. Both days of the job he, and his crew, were on time, professional and very easy to work with. Pricing was great and work was completed as agreed upon. The results were excellent. Not only would I hire again, but currently picking paint colors for the next job Mr. Galvan has estimated for us."
