Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

Typically, professionals recommend two coats of paint for even coverage. However, you may be able to get away with one coat if you’re painting over a light color with a darker or similar-shade color. But if you’re going from a darker to a lighter color, like white to black, you may need up to three coats.

If you’re going from a darker to a lighter color, like white to black, you may need up to three coats. Buying high-quality paint and using primer on the walls beforehand can save you the extra labor and cost that comes with adding more coats of paint.

Yes, you can paint most wall panels. 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.

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.

It’s necessary for paint to completely dry before exposure to rain, and that drying time varies by the type of paint used. Oil-based paint takes 6 to 8 hours to dry on average, meaning that’s the minimum time needed between the last brush stroke and the first raindrop. Latex paint dries faster at around 1 hour, and acrylic paint is even quicker, usually drying in about 30 minutes. If rain is in the forecast, check the paint manufacturer's details before laying on a new coat. 

Though it depends on the exact type, most paint lacquers only take about 15 to 30 minutes to dry. However, you’ll want to wait at least four hours before applying another coat and anywhere between 2 days and 2 weeks before polishing.

The color of the paint, its opacity, and the depth of the texture on the paper all affect how many coats of paint you need to apply to paintable wallpaper. You'll need at least two coats of paint to ensure even coverage. Don’t be surprised if you need to apply three coats if the embossing is very deep or if you use a dark color.
