Q: Can you apply waterproofing over paint?

• <div><p>You can apply waterproofing over paint, but you won't get as much protection as you would if you painted the surface with a waterproof paint from the get-go. Not all waterproofing methods are compatible with painted surfaces, and they may not adhere well. This is especially true if the paint is glossy, old, or flaking. Waterproofing sealers are primarily meant to be applied to porous surfaces, like concrete, wood, or brick. </p></div>

Q: What do professional painters use to remove paint?

• <div><p>Professional painters often use a Turpentine-based solution to remove paint, since it can remove oil-based paint as well as acrylics and varnishes. It&rsquo;s also an organic material derived from tree resin, so it&rsquo;s less toxic than traditional paint strippers. Consult a professional cabinet refinisher or painter about the best materials to use for paint stripping.</p></div>

Q: Can German schmear be removed?

• <div><p>Think hard before deciding to German schmear your home&rsquo;s exterior brickwork. If you do not like the look, you are pretty much stuck with it, as it is impossible to remove this finish the way you can remove paint. You risk damaging the underlying brick if you have to chisel and acid-wash it away. It will also take a very long time, and remnants of the mortar wash will always remain.</p></div>

Q: What is the best primer for peeling paint?

• <div><p>Numerous primers on the market will do the job of covering peeling paint. The best primers for peeling paint are bonding or adhesive primers that essentially glue the edges of peeling paint back to the subsurface while providing a smooth, even surface for the new paint coat. </p></div>

Q: Do I need to refinish my floor after removing paint?

• <div><p>This factor depends on exactly how much paint you remove from your hardwood floors. If it&rsquo;s just a few small, hardly noticeable spots, refinishing won&rsquo;t be necessary. However, if you completely strip your floors of paint, you will likely need to sand and finish them. </p><p> </p></div>

The owner Doug was friendly, cleaned up each day and I would highly recommend Davidson painting to anyone. My home value went up more than what the painting cost me.

"Josh went above and beyond what the initial project was. What was supposed to be a small paint job in my bathroom (according to my mind) due to years of leaks uncovered a lot of work needing to be done. He was honest and transparent the entire project where he could have slapped a coat of paint on and ran."
