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>

Q: Is it okay to paint over existing exterior paint?

• <div><p>You can paint over old exterior paint as long as you properly prepare the surface. You may need to sand your siding before painting over it, especially if you have wood siding. In some cases, if your siding is in good shape, a simple exterior primer is enough to prepare the surface for a new coat of paint. Touching up your home&rsquo;s exterior can not only increase your curb appeal; it can also help your home&rsquo;s siding be more durable and long-lasting.</p></div>

Q: How long will painted tile backsplash last?

• <div><p>Taking the time to properly prepare your tile backsplash before painting and treating it with care afterward is the best way to ensure its longevity. While the tile can last for the life of the home, you may have to repaint it after a few years. However, using only mild cleanser and water to keep it clean can maximize the paint's lifespan.</p></div>

Q: Do cinder blocks need to be primed before painting?

• <div><p>Yes, cinder blocks must be primed before painting. Without primer, your paint won't stick to the surface of the blocks. You should use a bonding and filling primer which fills all of the small pores of your blocks. Once the primer dries, you'll have a smoother surface to work with and your paint will stick easily to the blocks.</p></div>

Q: Should you paint a front door with a brush or a roller?

• <div><p>This depends on the size and design of your door. If your door is on the smaller side and features some unique design elements, go with a brush to ensure you get in those hard-to-reach crevices without painting outside the lines. If you&rsquo;re painting a large door, like a double door or garage door, and the panels are flat, go with a roller to get the job done quickly. </p></div>
