Q: How much does it cost to replace paint?

• <div><p>If you have a can or two of paint that's past its prime, replacing it shouldn't be too expensive. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/dolla-dolla-bills-how-much-should-you-pay-can-paint.htm">A gallon of paint costs</a> an average of <b>$25</b>. You may pay more if you want a superior quality paint or if you choose oil-based paint instead of latex or acrylic. </p><p>Buying in bulk can help you save, provided you use all the paint you purchase. For example, a 5-gallon bucket of paint tends to cost less per gallon than a pint or quart-sized can.</p></div>

Q: Can you paint over paneling without sanding?

• <div><p>It's possible to paint over paneling without sanding if you use a primer that masks defects and provides a strong base layer for the final coat of paint to adhere to. If you have solid wood paneling, it's helpful to sand it lightly so your primer and paint stick. But, if your paneling has a faux veneer, skip the sanding because you&rsquo;ll remove a layer and expose the pressed board underneath.</p></div>

Q: What is the best paint finish for wrought iron railings?

• <div><p>The best finish for wrought iron railings is either a semi-gloss or a gloss sheen, as each offers good durability against rain, wind, heat, cold, and snow. </p></div>

Q: Should I prime metal before painting?

• <div><p>Yes, primer is an essential step for preventing rust formation on your newly-painted metal surface. Additionally, primer can help the paint stick to the metal better and can slow down the formation of rust if you buy a rust-inhibiting primer. Just be sure to avoid water-based primers, which aren't made for metal surfaces.</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...
