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’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—if the alcohol scrubs away the paint, it’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’s a match.</p></div>

Q: Can I use a roller to paint my cabinets?

• <div><p>In many cases, you can use a roller to paint detached cabinet doors and cabinet sides more quickly. However, expect at least some brush or spray gun work to complete the project, especially if your cabinets have complex insets, which are difficult to paint with a roller.</p></div>

Q: What are the disadvantages of limewash paint?

• <div><p>When you compare <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/limewash-vs-paint.htm">limewash versus paint</a>, the drawbacks of limewash include its relatively limited durability compared to synthetic paints, often requiring reapplication in high-traffic areas or harsh weather conditions. Moreover, applying limewash requires skill and patience to avoid issues like streaks or uneven coverage. Limewash also comes with some color variety using natural pigments, but you have fewer options than if you go with paint.</p></div>

Q: How many coats of whitewash do I need?

• <div><p>The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage. </p></div>

Q: Is it better to paint a fence with a roller or brush?

• <div><p>Both a roller and a brush are effective methods for painting a chain link fence. A roller will make the job easier by ensuring symmetrical strokes and reaching the backside of the fence as well, which cuts down on paint time. However, a brush is often necessary for painting the base of the fence and near the posts due to its ease of reaching smaller spaces.</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.
