How can I stop paint from bubbling?

• <div><p>To make sure the paint won’t bubble as you apply it, make sure to paint on a day that’s cooler than 85 degrees Fahrenheit. When the temperature is too high, the paint won’t dry evenly, which can result in bubbles forming on the surface. Another way to prevent paint from bubbling is to clean the walls, apply primer, and let everything dry completely before you begin.</p></div>

How much does it cost to paint or stain a deck?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-to-paint-deck.htm">The cost to paint a deck</a> can range from <b>$500 to $2,000</b> depending on labor costs, the size of your deck, and the type of paint that you choose. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-stain-deck.htm">The cost to stain a deck</a> is a little less expensive, ranging from <b>$550 to $1,250</b>.

Q: Should I stain my deck with a brush or rag?

• <div><p>Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.</p></div>

Q: What other projects should I do at the same time as gutter painting?

• <div><p>Most gutter painting pros also specialize in complete home exterior painting. You may save by making your gutter painting part of the cost to paint the exterior of a house in its entirety. Many people have all parts of their home exterior painted simultaneously to keep everything looking equally fresh. Consider having walls, trim, porches, shutters, and doors painted as well.</p></div>

Q: How do you know if stain is dry?

• <div><p>Hold off on walking across your freshly stained deck for at least 24 to 48 hours and even longer before setting down furniture or planters. Drying time can stretch depending on humidity and temperature, so give it extra time when in doubt. Also, remember that even though your stained deck may feel dry to the touch, it can take 24 hours to one week to cure fully, based on the type of stain used.</p></div>
