Q: How to avoid roller marks when painting?

• <div><p>Roller marks are streaks or smudges that show up on the wall after painting. They can make the paint's surface look textured or uneven. To prevent roller marks, make sure there's enough paint on the roller when you apply it to the wall. You may have to dip the roller in the paint more frequently than you expect to ensure you have an adequate amount of paint on it.</p><p>Choosing the right type of roller can also help you avoid streaks and marks. If you're painting an interior wall, look for a roller with a low nap and choose one that's large enough for the job.</p></div>

Q: Can you save a dried paintbrush?

• <div><p>With patience, you can often save a dried paintbrush. Soak the bristles overnight and clean the brush as you would any other time. You'll likely have to repeat the cleaning steps, including soaking, more than once.</p></div>

Q: What should I do if I used interior paint outside?

• <div><p>First off, take a breath. The good news is that interior paint, especially when used outside, won&rsquo;t harm your health. The bad news is that you&rsquo;re going to have to reapply the proper exterior paint at some point in the not-so-distant future. Otherwise the current coat will chip, crack, and fade, or worse, develop mold or an insect infestation without remediation. </p></div>
