"Rob painted the hallway of our 4 storey condo, and also revarnished the much weathered front door. The entire project went so smoothly! Rob worked quickly, and neatly. The hallway looks fantastic. The entire job went so well, I asked him to paint our living room next!"

"Peter did a great job painting our rain damaged ceiling and walls in our living room, transforming it into a whole new living space. Because of his great work in our living room we hired him again to paint our deck. We are so pleased with all of his work so far that we will be contacting him in the future for additional projects on our home. He is trustworthy, gives fair prices, easy to contact and completes projects efficiently within the promised time. Highly recommend!"

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

Most spray paints are oil-based, meaning you will need a solvent to dissolve them, like paint thinner, lacquer thinner, or acetone. While solvents can be useful in removing paint, they are also very flammable and require the use of a respirator. Beyond that, these products may smear paint and cannot be used on all surfaces.

You can paint over lead paint, or “encapsulate” it with a special paint that includes an ingredient called an encapsulant. The EPA approves encapsulation as a lead paint removal method as long as the paint remains undisturbed. Standard types of paint without an “encapsulant” from the big box stores or hardware stores do not meet EPA standards for remediation of lead-based paint.

Most handy homeowners can tackle removing texture from unpainted walls. Removing texture from painted walls is a bit trickier. Paint acts as a sealant, so you can’t soften the texture with water. Instead, you’ll have to add a layer of drywall compound known as a skim coat. This process is messy and takes some practice.

The biggest issue with painting your interior walls with exterior paint isn’t the way the paint looks or performs—it’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—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.

The easiest and fastest way to remove paint from a surface is to use a chemical paint stripper to loosen the paint and then remove the paint using a paint scraper. You can also speed up the process by making the area as accessible as possible, which could include removing window sashes or taking doors off the hinges.
