Q: How long should you air out your house after painting?

• <div><p>After painting, air out the painted area for at least 48 to 72 hours by opening windows and using fans, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission. The process helps disperse volatile organic compounds (VOCs) the paint emits, reducing their concentration indoors. However, in some cases, especially with oil-based paints, airing out for extended periods may be necessary. Monitor air quality and continue ventilation until paint fumes dissipate significantly.</p></div>

Q: How long should stucco dry before painting?

• <div><p>Stucco will dry in two to three days, but you should wait one to two months to allow it to cure fully before you paint it. The curing process is slow, but leaving the material exposed to air and natural moisture will help it reach its maximum strength. If you live in a hot, arid climate, wait a month before painting. Wait two months before painting if you live in a more moderate or wet climate.</p></div>

Q: Do professional painters spray or roll?

• <div><p>Many professionals combine spraying and rolling to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/tips-making-your-paint-job-last-longer.htm">help your exterior paint job last longer</a>. They first spray the surface to cover the whole area quickly, then use a technique known as back-rolling. This involves using a textured roller to work the wet paint into the surface to promote maximum adhesion. It also produces a soft finish that helps hide surface blemishes and makes touching up easier.</p></div>

Q: Does painter’s tape leave residue over time?

• <div><p>While it is possible for painter&rsquo;s tape to leave some residue, it is designed specifically not to. If it does leave residue behind, it likely means that the painter&rsquo;s tape was left on too long after the paint dried.</p></div>

Q: Where and how should I store paint rollers?

• <div><p>Store paint rollers in their original cover or a homemade one to prevent dust from getting caught in their fibers. Try wrapping them in aluminum foil, duct tape, or plastic wrap, then take it a step further and store them in a closed container to ensure they&rsquo;re always ready to go.</p><p> </p></div>
