Is it a good idea to sand between coats of primer?

• <div><p>You don’t have to sand between primer coats. However, if you’d like, you may lightly sand your last coat to ensure a smooth surface before you apply the paint color.</p></div>

Can I repaint only a few spots in a room?

• <div><p>Rather than learning how to repaint a room in its entirety, you might want to touch up areas that are showing worn paint or damage. Learning <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-match-paint-after-patching-wall.htm">how to match the paint color already on the walls</a> can be challenging, though. If you don’t have any of the original paint, your local hardware store might have a record in your account of your past paint color purchases. Otherwise, remove and take a small piece of painted drywall to the hardware store to do paint matching. Test the new paint in a hidden area to be sure it matches. </p></div>

Q: What are good paint colors for farmhouse accent walls?

• <div><p>When it comes to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/accent-wall-ideas.htm">accent walls</a> in farmhouse decor, several paint colors can work well to create a focal point and add visual interest to the space. Some excellent choices for farmhouse accent walls include warm and earthy tones, muted blues and greens, and weathered grays. Warm browns can create a rich, cozy backdrop, while brick reds can recreate the look and feel of an antique barn, pairing well with distressed woods and galvanized steel.</p></div>

Q: Can a beginner use a paint sprayer?

• <div><p>Beginners can absolutely use a paint sprayer, but there is some technique involved, so you&rsquo;ll have to spend some time learning how to use your sprayer. It&rsquo;s a good idea to practice on a scrap surface before moving to your actual painting project to get used to using the sprayer. This can help avoid over spraying, which can lead to drips, bubbles, and other imperfections on your finished product. </p></div>

Q: Should you pop paint bubbles?

• <div><p>No, you shouldn't pop any paint bubbles. Doing so can trap the moisture behind the paint, creating further water damage. Instead, use a paint scraper to gently scrape off the bubbles to create a smooth surface for repainting.</p></div>
