Is it okay to wash paint brushes in the sink?

• <div><p>You can clean water-based paint from brushes in the sink and allow the waste water to go down the drain. However, one<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/home-painting-tips.htm"> tip to remember during a painting project</a> is that it's illegal to allow oil-based paint or its cleaning solutions, even organic ones, down the drain and into the sewer system.</p></div>

Q: How do you prepare an already painted wall for new paint?

• <div><p>If your already-painted walls have glossy paint, scuff the surface with 220-grit sandpaper or its equivalent before applying primer and paint. For all other paint sheen finishes, clean the walls and repair any spots that need it. Remember to protect the places that you don't intend to paint. </p></div>

Q: Is enamel paint water or oil based?

• <div><p>Enamel paint is typically an oil-based paint, but some options on the market are water-based. Water-based enamel paints tend to dry faster, in less than 8 hours, while oil-based enamel paints may take 24 hours. Oil-based enamel tends to be more durable and retain its shine for longer than water-based enamel paint.</p></div>

Q: Is satin or flat paint better?

• <div><p>Satin paint is better for high-traffic spaces that need to hold up to a lot of cleaning. It&rsquo;s also best for spaces where walls are free of imperfections since the light reflecting off a glossy satin finish will highlight them even more. On the other end of the spectrum, think of flat paint for walls with dents or divots you want to conceal. Since flat paint isn&rsquo;t as strong as satin paint, it&rsquo;s not great for spaces that need a lot of cleaning. </p></div>

Q: Does tile paint peel off?

• <div><p>Like any painted surface, tile paint can peel and chip over time. However, tile paint can become especially susceptible to peeling during periods of high humidity. Other sources of excess moisture will also cause tile paint to peel faster than normal. And if the tiles are in a high-traffic area, like the entryway floor, tile paint will chip and peel faster.</p></div>
