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>

How can I stop paint from bubbling?

• <div><p>To make sure the paint won’t bubble as you apply it, make sure to paint on a day that’s cooler than 85 degrees Fahrenheit. When the temperature is too high, the paint won’t dry evenly, which can result in bubbles forming on the surface. Another way to prevent paint from bubbling is to clean the walls, apply primer, and let everything dry completely before you begin.</p></div>

Q: Is it bad to paint over wallpaper?

• <div><p>You can paint over wallpaper, but it&rsquo;s not usually recommended, especially if the wallpaper underneath is textured or dirty.

Q: What is the disadvantage of black paint?

• <div><p>Black paint absorbs light, so using black paint will cause your room to look darker overall. In addition to reducing ambient light, black paint can make your space feel smaller because it hides depth and contours. The other major drawback is that black paint is harder to paint over with a lighter color. You&rsquo;ll need to fully prime your wall with a good quality primer and use at least two coats of paint to get back to a lighter color after it&rsquo;s been painted black.</p></div>
