Can I use ceiling paint on walls?

• <div><p>While we can’t stop you, we don’t recommend using ceiling paint on walls. Ceiling paint is designed to be flat and less durable, which means it won’t stand up well to scrubbing or regular contact. It’s often limited in color selection. If you’re painting a low-traffic area, such as a closet, ceiling paint might work in an absolute pinch. But for most walls, it’s worth using a more durable, wall-specific formula. </p></div>

Q: Do specific finishes work better with certain types of colors?

• <div><p>Depending on your lighting and design style, some finishes will enhance certain colors to your liking more than others. For example, high-gloss finishes can intensify deeper shades such as navy blue and emerald green, making them feel luxurious and bold. On the other hand, you may appreciate how soft pastels and neutrals have a more calming, smooth feel in matte or eggshell finishes. </p></div>

Q: How long after painting can you open the garage door?

• <div><p>You should let your initial paint job dry at least 12 hours before opening the door. Check your work after 12 hours have passed to confirm there are no uneven patches, or signs of the old paint showing though&mdash;if you see any, we recommend applying a second coat of paint and waiting an additional 12 hours for it to dry. </p></div>

Q: Do services include repainting?

• <div><p>Yes, many repair services include repainting to match the existing siding color.</p></div>

Q: Can I paint eggshell over satin?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re choosing a finish with less enamel, it will be difficult to cover without a little extra elbow grease. Sand a layer of the satin paint off first before going in with the eggshell finish. That way, the eggshell paint will have a better chance of adhering to the surface and will likely last longer.</p></div>

They are very good at repairing and painting vehicles. I have been using them for 9 years. Their work is excellent and they have a quick turnaround time in getting the job done and they don’t overcharge. So it is value, service and dependability with them.
