Can you stain over a peeling stain?

• <div><p>You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.</p></div>

Q: Do you need primer for satin paint?

• <div><p>Because satin paint has a sheen to it, it will highlight curves and contours. While that&rsquo;s great for trim, it&rsquo;s not so excellent for your repaired drywall that has a few small blemishes. In addition, satin paint will stick to your surface better if it&rsquo;s primed. Sand and prime your surface before applying satin paint for best results.</p></div>

Q: How many coats of paint do you need to paint a room?

• <div><p>In most cases, you&rsquo;ll need two coats of paint to ensure proper coverage. If you put down a coat of primer first, you could get away with a single coat of paint, but you&rsquo;ll likely still need two coats. The only exception would be if you&rsquo;re painting with a light color over a dark color, in which case you may need three or four coats of paint to ensure the dark color doesn&rsquo;t show through the new paint. </p></div>

Q: How do I match paint on textured or older walls?

• <div><p>Textured or older walls with years of wear can make matching trickier. Paint on these surfaces may catch the light differently or have faded unevenly. Try to match in a smoother, less worn spot (such as behind a door or piece of art). You may also want to paint a small test swatch and let it dry completely before deciding, as it may look significantly different once it has cured.</p></div>

Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.</p></div>

Q: How long does paint take to cure?

• <div><p>Generally, interior paint takes up to <b>one month</b> to fully cure. Factors like temperature, humidity, the type of paint you used, and the surface you painted over will affect how long it takes. In particularly dry areas, your paint will cure in 30 days, whereas humid locations may take more than a month. While paint may feel dry to the touch in a matter of hours, it takes much longer for it to cure, so be careful around newly painted surfaces within the first 30 days after painting.</p></div>

We had a wonderful experience with a re-modeller. He came recommended by a friend. He is amazing. He has a number of people that work with him. You name it and he does it. I never even got paint on my bushes when he painted my exterior. Amazing.
