Q: Can I use a Magic Eraser on flat paint?

• <div><p>Yes, you can use a Magic Eraser on flat paint without affecting the paint job itself. This is especially helpful if you want to remove dirt and scuff marks without compromising the paint coverage. Simply move the sponge over the area you want to clean, and stains and marks should disappear. </p></div>

Q: How many coats of paint do you use with a spray gun?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-many-coats-paint-does-my-house-need.htm">number of paint coats you should apply</a> varies by project, but many jobs call for two coats of paint. Make sure you let the first coat fully dry according to the manufacturer&rsquo;s instructions before applying that second coat. Luckily, paint from a sprayer dries rather quickly due to the nature of the fine mist created by the sprayer.</p></div>

Q: Is satin too shiny for walls?

• <div><p>Unlike high or semi-gloss paint finishes, which can create an excessively reflective effect in indoor spaces, the sheen in satin is understated and right at home on interior walls. If, on the other hand, you don&rsquo;t want any level of shine at all, consider opting for a flat paint or another similarly sheenless alternative like matte. </p></div>

Q: How long do you let caulk dry before painting?

• <div><p>You should wait for caulk to cure before painting it. Silicone and acrylic latex caulk can take anywhere from one to 10 days to fully cure, and polyurethane may take 10 to 12 days to cure. Always follow the instructions on the label when it comes to painting over caulk because different types require different drying and curing times. </p></div>

Q: How do you hide wallpaper seams when painting?

• <div><p>You can hide wallpaper seams when painting by applying joint compound over them and then sanding thoroughly until smooth. You&rsquo;ll want to apply two layers of compound, allowing for four to eight hours between coats. Do a light sanding between coats and then after the final coat is dry. Once the compound dries completely, you can begin priming and painting the wall.</p></div>
