Q: Should you consider painting your stucco exterior?

• <div><p>Painting over stucco is a great idea when done correctly. It provides an opportunity to refresh and protect the exterior, improving a home's curb appeal. Moreover, it adds a protective layer against the elements, preventing moisture infiltration and reducing the risk of stucco damage. However, proper preparation, including cleaning, repairing cracks, and applying the appropriate primer, is crucial for a successful outcome. Using high-quality paint is also essential for long-lasting results. When done with care and attention to detail, painting over stucco can be a cost-effective way to transform and maintain your home's exterior.</p></div>

Q: How do you open a can of dry paint?

• <div><p>While <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-make-paint-dry-smoother.htm">paint drying smoothly</a> on a wall is ideal, a can full of dry paint is not. To open a can of dry paint, you&rsquo;ll need a tool with a sharp edge, such as a utility knife or a box cutter. Take your tool and score the area where the lid meets the can to break through the dried-up paint. Then, use a paint can opener or a flathead screwdriver to pry the lid open and check the state of the contents. For smaller cans with plastic lids, you can run the top under hot water to loosen the lid. </p></div>

Q: How many coats of paint does a bathroom need?

• <div><p>Most bathroom walls will require two coats of paint, as this ensures proper coverage. If you&rsquo;re painting over a darker color with a lighter color, you may need additional coats. If you&rsquo;re just refreshing with the same shade, one coat of paint is usually fine. It&rsquo;s a good idea to put down one to two coats of primer before painting to ensure the best results. This can also cut down on the need for additional coats if you&rsquo;re painting over a darker color.</p></div>

Q: Where and how should I store paint rollers?

• <div><p>Store paint rollers in their original cover or a homemade one to prevent dust from getting caught in their fibers. Try wrapping them in aluminum foil, duct tape, or plastic wrap, then take it a step further and store them in a closed container to ensure they&rsquo;re always ready to go.</p><p> </p></div>

Q: Can you paint wires in a basement ceiling?

• <div><p>You technically can paint wires in a basement ceiling, but there are several important safety and code considerations. It's safe to paint non-metallic sheathed cable as long as the labeling remains visible. You can also paint low-voltage wires and conduit and junction boxes to help them blend into your basement. </p><p>However, you should not paint damaged or deteriorated wiring is a fire hazard because it poses a fire hazard. The same goes for painting over high-heat wires that connect to heat-generating appliances or systems. Be sure to avoid painting multiple coats onto any wires, as that traps heat and poses fire risks.</p></div>
