Why does caulk crack when painting?

• <div><p>Some caulk shrinks during the drying process, leading to cracked paint and a less-than-ideal appearance. Not all caulk cracks when painting, but it’s important that you read the label on your caulk container before painting to ensure that it’s actually paintable. There are four main types of caulk, and acrylic latex caulk is one of the most reliable caulking materials for painting over without fear of cracked paint. Avoid painting over silicone caulking.</p></div>

What kind of paint works best on concrete?

• <div><p>Epoxy paint is a popular option for concrete due to its durability and stain resistance. You can also use masonry paint, which adheres well to concrete. Acrylic paints are more affordable but not as durable. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/concrete-stain-vs-paint.htm">Concrete stain</a> is another option, which is more durable than paint and won’t peel over time. </p></div>

Can you paint concrete with a roller?

• <div><p>You can paint concrete with paint rollers. In fact, using paint rollers is considered one of the easiest ways to evenly apply paint on concrete. A paint roller with a 1/2- to 3/4-inch-thick nap—which is basically a fabric paint roller cover—is best for painting concrete. The thicker the nap, the more paint it can hold to fill those pesky concrete cracks and crevices.</p></div>

Q: Do I tip the crew or just the lead painter?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s a matter of personal preference on whether you want to tip the crew or the lead painter. You can tip the crew as a whole, just the lead painter, or each individual painter. Do what feels right in the context of the job.</p></div>

Q: Can you paint over mold?

• <div><p>Painting over mold is not an effective solution and can actually make the problem worse. Instead, it traps moisture, which allows mold to grow and spread beneath the surface. Mold must be completely removed before painting to ensure the problem doesn&rsquo;t recur. If mold is painted over, it may eventually seep through the new layer of paint, causing discoloration and peeling.</p></div>
