Painting questions, answered by experts

While paint drying smoothly on a wall is ideal, a can full of dry paint is not. To open a can of dry paint, you’ll need a tool with a sharp edge, such as a utility knife or a box cutter. Take your tool and score the area where the lid meets the can to break through the dried-up paint. Then, use a paint can opener or a flathead screwdriver to pry the lid open and check the state of the contents. For smaller cans with plastic lids, you can run the top under hot water to loosen the lid. 

They don’t have to be, but painting trim white when you have white walls can have many benefits. Often, the pairing makes rooms look larger and adds a ton of visual drama. It can also provide more of a blank slate to allow any of your wall decor to really stand out. However, there’s no “right” color choice for trim on white walls.

You can test to see if your mist coat has worked by using masking tape after the drying period. Apply masking tape to an inconspicuous area of the wall after the mist coat has had at least 24 hours to dry. Then, peel off the tape. It should come up clear, with no paint residue. If it does have paint residue, you may need to remove the mist coat and try coating the plaster again with a different ratio of paint and water.

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

Using different finishes within a room is the norm. For example, you might use eggshell on the walls, semi-gloss on the trim and doors, and flat on the ceiling. This creates contrast and highlights architectural details while allowing for better durability in high-touch areas. Just make sure to use a trim color that complements your walls.
