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 is the difference between flat and matte paints?

• <div><p>While often used interchangeably, flat and matte paints are not the same. Flat paint has no gloss and is completely shine-free, while matte has up to 10% resin, giving it a slightly velvety appearance. That small amount of gloss in matte paint gives it a more elegant, modern appearance than flat paint, though flat paint is ideal for hiding imperfections in even the most dented, scratched, and repeatedly repaired surfaces. </p></div>

Q: What happens if you paint brick without a primer?

• <div><p>If you skip using a primer before painting brick, you risk ending up with a blotchy paint job that won&rsquo;t last as long. Because of the natural variations in brick, paint can adhere and dry unevenly to different spots. When you use a primer, you put a neutralizing layer between the brick and the paint, evening the texture and color. Without a good primer, paint can also flake off in spots, come out blotchy, and wear away more easily.</p></div>

Q: Is it okay to paint over existing exterior paint?

• <div><p>You can paint over old exterior paint as long as you properly prepare the surface. You may need to sand your siding before painting over it, especially if you have wood siding. In some cases, if your siding is in good shape, a simple exterior primer is enough to prepare the surface for a new coat of paint. Touching up your home&rsquo;s exterior can not only increase your curb appeal; it can also help your home&rsquo;s siding be more durable and long-lasting.</p></div>

Q: Can you paint a flagstone patio?

• <div><p>Yes, you can paint a flagstone patio, but ensure you choose a durable latex paint specifically designed for outdoor use and heavy foot traffic. An elastomeric latex paint will fill in all the gaps and create a waterproof seal over the stone. Even the best products made for foot traffic can last for one to two years, on average, so be prepared to reapply paint regularly. </p></div>
