What’s the best paint color for a small bathroom?

• <div><p>Soft and light colors are more common in bathrooms than dark colors, partially because they create a larger sense of space. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-clean-eggshell-paint-walls.htm">Clean eggshell paint walls</a> or other neutrals like beige and gray work. Lighter shades of blue and green are also popular bathroom colors. If you want to incorporate dark, bold colors, use them as accents in small places rather than on the entire bathroom.</p></div>

Q: Is it OK to paint over dirty walls?

• <div><p>Dirty or not, you should always <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-clean-walls.htm">clean the wall</a> beforehand. Even if the wall looks sparkling clean to the naked eye, it&rsquo;s good practice to wipe it down with a damp rag and mild detergent. Leftover dirt, dust, and residue can create unsightly textures or interfere with the paint&rsquo;s adherence to the wall. You&rsquo;ll never regret cleaning it, but you might regret skipping this step.</p></div>

Q: Is it easy to add an orange peel texture to a wall?

• <div><p>Learning <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-do-orange-peel-texture.htm">how to apply an orange peel texture</a> is similar to adding a knockdown texture. You can use a spray gun or a roller to apply the drywall texture and then use various blending techniques to create the desired orange peel look. Adding this texture could be a DIY job, but it also can be extremely messy, so best to leave it to a professional.</p></div>

Q: How many coats of paint does a bathroom need?

• <div><p>Most bathroom walls will require two coats of paint, as this ensures proper coverage. If you&rsquo;re painting over a darker color with a lighter color, you may need additional coats. If you&rsquo;re just refreshing with the same shade, one coat of paint is usually fine. It&rsquo;s a good idea to put down one to two coats of primer before painting to ensure the best results. This can also cut down on the need for additional coats if you&rsquo;re painting over a darker color.</p></div>

Q: Can you paint drop ceiling tiles?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s possible to paint certain drop ceiling tiles, including those made of plastic, metal, and wood. Painting fiberboard ceiling tiles is technically possible, but the results rarely look appealing, so it&rsquo;s best to replace them with new tiles, especially given how affordable they are. If you do paint your drop ceiling tiles, it&rsquo;s a good idea to use a paint sprayer and a rapidly-drying paint to avoid drips. Latex paint is often a good choice, especially if you thin it and apply it using a sprayer.</p></div>
