Which is better: enamel or latex paint?

• <div><p>If you’re looking for durability or outdoor use, opt for enamel paint. Enamel paint is typically oil- or lacquer-based, so it dries hard and it’s ideal for exposure to the elements. Latex paint is water-based and has more flexibility when it dries so it won’t hold up as well to changes in temperature or exposure to wind, sun, or rain.</p></div>

How long does chalk paint last?

• <div><p>This largely depends on your environment and how well the paint was sealed. Properly sealed chalk paint furniture that isn’t regularly dinged by toys or steel boots can last 5 years or—often significantly—longer. However, if it isn’t sealed correctly or is subject to regular wear and tear, you can expect the coat to last 3 years or less. </p></div>

Q: What should I do if I used exterior paint inside?

• <div><p>The biggest issue with painting your interior walls with exterior paint isn&rsquo;t the way the paint looks or performs&mdash;it&rsquo;s the lack of ventilation. The higher quantities of VOCs in exterior paint will have a harder time dispersing in an enclosed space, so do everything you can to direct them out&mdash;like turning on a fan and opening your windows and doors. Afterward, you can simply prime and redo your walls with interior paint, and no one will know the difference.</p></div>

Q: Will repainting an interior room increase the value of the house?

• <div><p>Your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/does-interior-paint-increase-home-value.htm">return on investment (ROI) for interior repainting</a> work is around <b>107%</b>. Repainting an interior room in your home can give it an updated look that will appeal to potential buyers. A fresh paint job could reassure buyers that you&rsquo;ve cared for the home and made regular updates over the years you&rsquo;ve owned it. </p></div>

Q: When should you remove painters tape after caulking?

• <div><p>If you are caulking, painter&rsquo;s tape should be removed before the caulk starts to set. It only takes 30 to 60 minutes for the caulk to dry, so this should be done fairly quickly.</p></div>
