Do you waste more paint spraying or rolling?

• <div><p>Sprayers use up to 30% more paint than rollers because of overspray. Some ways you can minimize the amount of wasted paint include selecting <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-paint-sprayers.htm">the best paint sprayer</a> for the job, choosing a lower pressure sprayer and using a lower pressure setting, keeping the sprayer well-maintained, not spraying on a windy day, and holding the sprayer at an appropriate distance from the surface. </p></div>

Q: What magnetic paint colors can you get?

• <div><p>Magnetic paint is only available in dark gray or black because of the iron dust particles mixed through it. If your heart is set on a less-gloomy shade, add a top coat or two of other latex or chalkboard paint. But adding more than two top coats will degrade the magnetic properties. Dark top coats work better than light shades, as the black or gray magnetic paint is less likely to peek through.</p></div>

Q: Can I hang artwork or shelves myself?

• <div><p>Yes, but professional services ensure secure installation, accurate leveling, and protection against wall damage, especially for heavy or valuable items.</p></div>

Q: What happens if you paint brick without a primer?

• <div><p>If you skip using a primer before painting brick, you risk ending up with a blotchy paint job that won&rsquo;t last as long. Because of the natural variations in brick, paint can adhere and dry unevenly to different spots. When you use a primer, you put a neutralizing layer between the brick and the paint, evening the texture and color. Without a good primer, paint can also flake off in spots, come out blotchy, and wear away more easily.</p></div>

Q: What is the correct way to paint a wall?

• <div><p>Painting a wall involves multiple steps. First, clean and sand the wall to prepare the surface, then tape off any areas where you don't want paint to go. Next, shake or stir the paint in the can, then pour it into a tray. </p><p>Dip a paintbrush into the paint can so that half of the bristles are coated. Use the brush to cut in or make a frame around the edges of the wall. Then, roll the paint roller in the tray, ensuring that it is evenly covered in paint. Roll the paint onto the wall in an &quot;M&quot; or &quot;W&quot; formation, making sure the paint is applied evenly. </p></div>
