How do you open a plastic-sealed paint can?

• <div><p>Although plastic-sealed paint cans can look tricky, you can open them with adjustable pliers in no time. Grip the plastic seal with the pliers and pull the seal up, moving around the seal until you’ve pried the plastic up in enough spots. Then, you can grab the seal and pop it off the top of the paint can. Depending on the strength of the seal, you may even be able to remove the seal with just your hands by pulling upwards.</p></div>

Q: Which paint finish is the most durable?

• <div><p>High-gloss paint is the most durable of the paint finishes. Most glossy paints are <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-enamel-paint.htm">enamel paint</a> made from oils, which gives them that hard, shiny surface with higher durability levels. Less durable matte finishes tend to come as acrylic, milk paint, or chalk paint. So if you&rsquo;re looking for durable paint, go for one with a higher sheen, as it will be easier to clean and ideal for spaces that are subject to damage.</p></div>

Q: Should you paint a front door with a brush or a roller?

• <div><p>This depends on the size and design of your door. If your door is on the smaller side and features some unique design elements, go with a brush to ensure you get in those hard-to-reach crevices without painting outside the lines. If you&rsquo;re painting a large door, like a double door or garage door, and the panels are flat, go with a roller to get the job done quickly. </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: Is it better to paint a fence with a roller or brush?

• <div><p>Both a roller and a brush are effective methods for painting a chain link fence. A roller will make the job easier by ensuring symmetrical strokes and reaching the backside of the fence as well, which cuts down on paint time. However, a brush is often necessary for painting the base of the fence and near the posts due to its ease of reaching smaller spaces.</p></div>
