Do you need to wear a mask with low-VOC paint?

• <div><p>Yes, it’s still important to wear a mask when working with low-VOC paint, as it still releases a small amount of volatile organic compounds. Don’t forget to also add additional ventilation by opening windows and setting up fans. This will help take care of odors and dissipate them quicker as the paint dries. </p></div>

Can you paint wires in a basement ceiling?

• <div><p>You technically can paint wires in a basement ceiling, but there are several important safety and code considerations. It's safe to paint non-metallic sheathed cable as long as the labeling remains visible. You can also paint low-voltage wires and conduit and junction boxes to help them blend into your basement. </p><p>However, you should not paint damaged or deteriorated wiring is a fire hazard because it poses a fire hazard. The same goes for painting over high-heat wires that connect to heat-generating appliances or systems. Be sure to avoid painting multiple coats onto any wires, as that traps heat and poses fire risks.</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: 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: Do professional painters spray or roll?

• <div><p>Many professionals combine spraying and rolling to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/tips-making-your-paint-job-last-longer.htm">help your exterior paint job last longer</a>. They first spray the surface to cover the whole area quickly, then use a technique known as back-rolling. This involves using a textured roller to work the wet paint into the surface to promote maximum adhesion. It also produces a soft finish that helps hide surface blemishes and makes touching up easier.</p></div>
