Q: What adds more value to a house: interior paint or exterior paint?

• <div><p>Both interior and exterior paint add value to your home, but exterior paint may have a higher ROI when it comes time to sell. Houses with more curb appeal fetch higher prices overall, and a fresh coat of paint can go a long way toward making a great first impression.</p></div>

Q: How do you prepare an already painted wall for new paint?

• <div><p>If your already-painted walls have glossy paint, scuff the surface with 220-grit sandpaper or its equivalent before applying primer and paint. For all other paint sheen finishes, clean the walls and repair any spots that need it. Remember to protect the places that you don't intend to paint. </p></div>

Q: How do you open a can of dry paint?

• <div><p>While <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-make-paint-dry-smoother.htm">paint drying smoothly</a> on a wall is ideal, a can full of dry paint is not. To open a can of dry paint, you&rsquo;ll need a tool with a sharp edge, such as a utility knife or a box cutter. Take your tool and score the area where the lid meets the can to break through the dried-up paint. Then, use a paint can opener or a flathead screwdriver to pry the lid open and check the state of the contents. For smaller cans with plastic lids, you can run the top under hot water to loosen the lid. </p></div>

Q: When should you remove painters tape after caulking?

• <div><p>If you are caulking, painter&rsquo;s tape should be removed before the caulk starts to set. It only takes 30 to 60 minutes for the caulk to dry, so this should be done fairly quickly.</p></div>

Q: What is the best way to paint a barn?

• <div><p>Renting a sprayer is the easiest way to paint a barn, but for detailed areas, you&rsquo;ll want to use a hand brush to get the job done. If you don&rsquo;t wish to rent a sprayer, you can also use a roller to hand-paint your barn, but this will add time to your project.</p></div>

This firm was outstanding to deal with. Very professional staff and what they promised they did. Even came back to touch up after it rained that night and some of the paint did not dry so it washed off. Came back as promised and finished the job. Highly recommend.
