Q: Can you paint over polyurethane without sanding?

• <div><p>Painting over polyurethane without sanding is not advisable. Sanding, followed by priming, is pivotal in ensuring proper adhesion of the new paint. Sanding creates a rough surface that allows the primer to adhere firmly, which helps paint cure correctly, providing a long-lasting and smooth finish. Neglecting thorough sanding, followed by a paint primer, could lead to the paint not adhering effectively, causing peeling or uneven application.</p></div>

Q: What paint is best for textured walls?

• <div><p>Latex paint is one of the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-paint-explained.htm">best paint types</a> for textured walls. This water-based paint is fast-drying and has low volatile organic compounds (VOCs), making it safer and more convenient for painting walls that require several coats of paint. </p><p>If you&rsquo;re painting exterior walls, you can also consider using oil-based paint, but keep in mind that it takes much longer to dry and can slow your project down considerably.</p></div>

Q: What sheen of paint should I use?

• <div><p>The best sheen depends on your needs. Satin and eggshell sheens are often recommended for siding since their lightly reflective finish can help hide imperfections while being relatively easy to clean. Semi-gloss sheen is a great fit for trim since it&rsquo;s incredibly easy to clean and more durable and moisture-resistant than satin and eggshell, but if you use it for the entire surface, its more reflective properties can highlight imperfections. This is also why high-glass sheen isn&rsquo;t a great fit for the entire surface.</p></div>

Q: Can you spray paint over asbestos?

• <div><p>While there are some sealants designed to be spray-painted over asbestos to encapsulate it, you still want to make sure it&rsquo;s a specifically designed product for this purpose&mdash;not just run-of-the-mill spray paint. Furthermore, be sure you aren&rsquo;t inadvertently spraying the asbestos fibers around when you take on this project, and as always, be sure to wear the proper protective gear, including a P-100-rated respirator and a disposable body suit, so as not to inadvertently breathe in or spread asbestos fibers.</p></div>

Q: What is the best way to protect floors while painting?

• <div><p>The best ways to protect floors when painting depend in part on the type of paint you&rsquo;re using. When you&rsquo;re using latex paint, most people will choose a drop cloth consisting of canvas, plastic, or heavy paper to protect the floor. If you are using oil-based paint, you may want to select a waterproof plastic sheet that will keep any paint from seeping through.</p></div>
