Q: How long does chalk paint last?

• <div><p>This largely depends on your environment and how well the paint was sealed. Properly sealed chalk paint furniture that isn&rsquo;t regularly dinged by toys or steel boots can last 5 years or&mdash;often significantly&mdash;longer. However, if it isn&rsquo;t sealed correctly or is subject to regular wear and tear, you can expect the coat to last 3 years or less. </p></div>

Q: How do you match new paint and faded paint?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-match-paint-after-patching-wall.htm">Matching new paint</a> with an old, faded color can be tricky. First, you&rsquo;ll need to determine whether the paint on your house is latex-based or oil-based. Lightly scrub an inconspicuous area of your home with rubbing alcohol&mdash;if the alcohol scrubs away the paint, it&rsquo;s latex-based. If not, the paint is oil-based. </p><p>Once you have that settled, bring a paint chip or photo of the color to a paint professional and have them mix you a matching paint in the same base (latex or oil). Then paint another inconspicuous part of your house to see if it&rsquo;s a match.</p></div>

Q: How do you open a paint can with a twist lid?

• <div><p>Newer paint cans often come with an &ldquo;easy pour&rdquo; spout with a twist lid. These can be tricky to open, but the key is to grip the spout cover with your fingers and twist it counter-clockwise. There should be a raised ridge in the middle to make it easy to grab. For more standard twist lids, you can try prying the lid off by turning it with your hands, as you would a jar, or running it under warm water.</p></div>

Q: Is repainting part of the repair process for plaster surfaces?

• <div><p>Many services include repainting to match the existing surface. Confirm with your provider.</p></div>

Q: What paint lasts the longest on wood?

• <div><p>Acrylic paint is the best choice for painting wood if you want a finish that will last for years to come. To ensure a flawless and long-lasting finish, remember these <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/tips-to-using-acrylic-paint-on-wood.htm">tips for using acrylic paint on wood</a>: Clean, sand, and prime before adding your color. Also, if you&rsquo;re using acrylics on outdoor furniture, be sure to choose paint that is specifically made for outdoor use.</p></div>

I highly recommend the Johnston team. They painted our exterior stucco home timely and efficiently, and we are highly satisfied. The management team were pleasant to communicate with, and were very understanding and flexible with some last minute requests.
