Q: What happens if you paint metal without primer?

• <div><p>Metal is finicky, particularly when exposed to the elements. In other words, you should always prime your metal garage door before laying down paint. Primer not only helps the paint stick to the metal, but it also prevents rust from bleeding through. If you already have some rust and want to avoid it peeking out, cover the spots with a zinc chromate primer. </p></div>

Q: Can you add paint to a skip trowel wall texture?

• <div><p>Yes, you can absolutely paint a wall that has skip trowel texture, but you need to make sure you have the right tools and use the appropriate strategies. First, make sure you buy a high-capacity roller with at least a &frac34;&rdquo; nap. This type of roller will hold enough paint to make application easy, and the thick nap is more likely to apply paint over the peaks and valleys. Additionally, you can&rsquo;t tape a textured wall, so paint any untextured walls or ceilings first, then tape the smooth surfaces and paint the skip trowel walls last.</p></div>

Q: How do I know when I should repaint my house?

• <div><p>When you should repaint your house is largely up to you since it&rsquo;s primarily a cosmetic update, but many people choose to repaint when they notice signs of fading, bubbling, or peeling paint. You might also want to repaint prior to selling your home to boost its resale value or if you want a new color.</p></div>

Q: Do specific finishes work better with certain types of colors?

• <div><p>Depending on your lighting and design style, some finishes will enhance certain colors to your liking more than others. For example, high-gloss finishes can intensify deeper shades such as navy blue and emerald green, making them feel luxurious and bold. On the other hand, you may appreciate how soft pastels and neutrals have a more calming, smooth feel in matte or eggshell finishes. </p></div>

Q: How much paint do I need for my stairway or foyer?

• <div><p>For a stairway or foyer, you should be able to do the whole room with a single gallon of paint. However, if your room is on the larger end, measure carefully and check a paint calculator just to be safe.</p></div>

They did just the places that required painting instead of having to do the whole house. They did scrape pretty well, but they missed a place. That was one thing I was upset about. We were traveling after that, so I didn't get a chance to bring them back. Their price was reasonable for all that...

They are very pleasant, amiable and very easy to deal with. Financing was easy with them. You do not need a construction loan. You put down 10% and then nothing else until the end. We are in upstate NY and during the coldest months the heat bill was $187.00. I used the pay $400 in our other...
