Q: What is the difference between knockdown and orange peel?

• <div><p>Knockdown and orange peel are two popular types of drywall textures. There are a couple of key differences, but the main one is the application process. When creating an orange peel texture, you spray the material onto the drywall. With knockdown, the first step is to spray, stomp, or brush the material onto the drywall. Then, you drag a tool (like a knife or trowel) over the material to create unique designs.</p></div>

Q: How long does paint last on fiberglass?

• <div><p>With a protective top coat, fiberglass door paint will last two or more years. Sometimes, this life span can be even shorter depending on what elements the door is exposed to. Conditions like heavy rain and snowfall don&rsquo;t usually cause issues, but high temperatures and direct sunlight can quickly lead to cracking and bubbling. </p></div>

Q: How long do painted gutters last?

• <div><p>Because gutters are consistently exposed to elements like water and humidity, any paint applied to them will have a shorter life span than other exterior home features, like siding and shutters. In general, painted gutters will need to be touched up or completely repainted every 5 to 10 years, though you may get a couple extra years with regular care and maintenance.</p></div>

Q: What type of finish should I use?

• <div><p>A finishing layer is an important step in the staining process. A top coat helps make a stain last longer by protecting it from spills, scratches, and natural weathering.</p><p>A lacquer finish is thin, fast-drying, and best used for cabinets, molding, and trim. It&rsquo;s not recommended for outdoor furniture. Another option is varnish, which has a glossy finish with a protective film and is often used on outdoor wood objects. Polyurethane, known as &ldquo;liquid plastic,&rdquo; dries quickly but doesn&rsquo;t hold up well in the heat. Lastly, a shellac finish adds a warm tint to wood but is affected by heat.</p></div>

Q: Which is better: enamel or latex paint?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;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&rsquo;s ideal for exposure to the elements. Latex paint is water-based and has more flexibility when it dries so it won&rsquo;t hold up as well to changes in temperature or exposure to wind, sun, or rain.</p></div>

I had to *ask* him to come back to clean the paint off of my hundred-year-old woodwork (because he failed to properly prep) and then he used a screwdriver (?!?!) to do so, which left gouging in the wood. It was not in pristine condition, but it did not have any chunks out of it until he got...

Travis is a professional who honestly cares about the customer. He went above and beyond on this project and we appreciated his consistent follow up. The ceiling turned out beautifully and we will definitely use 360 for our future painting projects.
