Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

The two most common paint types are latex-based paint and oil-based paint. Here are some of the most significant differences between the two:

Latex-based paint:

  • $15–$60 per gallon on average

  • Best for living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways

  • Dries more quickly than oil-based paints

  • More difficult to clean compared to oil-based paint

Oil-based paint

  • $20–$70 per gallon on average

  • Good for bathrooms, kitchens, doors, and trim

  • Easy to clean and holds up well against moisture

  • More likely to chip than latex-based paint

  • Requires good ventilation while drying

You’ll want to wait at least two hours before you paint over a freshly applied caulk. This time frame is the bare minimum, however. If you live in a humid region or a cool climate, you’ll need to wait even longer. A good rule of thumb is to wait a solid 24 hours for the caulk to dry to be on the safe side.

A finishing layer is an important step in the staining process. A top coat helps make a stain last longer by protecting it from spills, scratches, and natural weathering.

A lacquer finish is thin, fast-drying, and best used for cabinets, molding, and trim. It’s not recommended for outdoor furniture. Another option is varnish, which has a glossy finish with a protective film and is often used on outdoor wood objects. Polyurethane, known as “liquid plastic,” dries quickly but doesn’t hold up well in the heat. Lastly, a shellac finish adds a warm tint to wood but is affected by heat.

Paint your accent wall last after painting the other walls in the room. This will prevent color bleed and splatter from the adjacent walls. Be sure to give your other walls plenty of time to fully dry and cure before painting your accent wall—you don’t want the tape to pull off fresh paint when you remove it.

Many experts say to rely exclusively on semi-gloss when painting crown molding, as it imparts some shine and texture to the molding. Additionally, it’s more durable and long-lasting than flat paint. However, not everyone wants the added shine that semi-gloss paint provides, as it calls attention to imperfections in the wall. Flat paint offers a subtle and classic look, which is the right choice for many homeowners.
