Which is better: enamel or latex paint?

• <div><p>If you’re looking for durability or outdoor use, opt for enamel paint. Enamel paint is typically oil- or lacquer-based, so it dries hard and it’s ideal for exposure to the elements. Latex paint is water-based and has more flexibility when it dries so it won’t hold up as well to changes in temperature or exposure to wind, sun, or rain.</p></div>

Q: Do you need to wash walls before painting?

• <div><p>The answer to whether you need to clean the walls before painting depends largely on the condition of the existing finish and your desired results. You can often get away with painting bedroom and living room walls with just a dusting and some high-quality paint. However, the best results come from doing all of the prep steps first, including a gentle cleaning.</p></div>

Q: Can I just paint over old paint?

• <div><p>In some cases, you may be able to skip the primer and paint over old paint. If you&rsquo;re painting over paint that&rsquo;s in good condition and is a similar color and finish to the new paint, you probably don&rsquo;t need to use primer. If the old paint is dark or uneven or the wall has stains or damage, you&rsquo;ll want to apply primer before a new coat of paint. </p></div>

Q: Is it OK to paint over cracked paint?

• <div><p>You can paint over cracked paint, but only if you properly sand down the damaged areas. Once the surface is as smooth as you can get it, clean the walls and let them dry before applying a new coat of paint. Painting over cracked paint without sanding or cleaning beforehand will not cover up the cracks and may even make them look worse. </p></div>

Q: What is the correct order to paint a room?

• <div><p>There is no one correct order for painting a room, as it largely depends on personal preference and skill level. However, for non-professional painters, we recommend the following order: ceiling, walls, doors, windows, trim. This is because painting trim, windows, and doors can be more time-consuming and meticulous, and it's best to save them for last when you&rsquo;ve already gained some confidence from painting the larger surfaces.</p></div>

Communication was excellent. Painting skill was good. When I have them back to do more I will supply shoe covers. We did have some red clay tracked in on the carpet. We did manage to get the stain out. I would hire them again.
