When you buy paint, it’s a good idea to keep the paint chips and labels together in a folder. This way, matching the color later will never be a problem. This is great if you need to patch up or paint another room in the future!

In today’s modern paints, many aspects of performance actually depend more on the quality of the base of the paint rather than the color. The tint base will determine everything from the toughness of the paint to its resistance to dirt and stains.

Semi-gloss finishes enhance a room by their shiny, rich look. They offer excellent stain and scrub resistance and therefore are ideal for all rooms of a house, including kitchens and bathrooms. They are also ideal for use on trim.

Your brush choice goes all the way to the very tip of the filaments. On higher quality brushes the filaments have split ends, also called flagged ends, which allow them to spread paint evenly. Other brushes have tipped ends that come to a point and allow more control.

For centuries paint used a fairly standard formula. They'd start with a lead paste, then add linseed oil, turpentine, a dryer, and pigment. This caused a lot of unintentional lead poisoning, and in modern times lead-based paint has largely been banned.

It is generally agreed that dark walls can make a room feel smaller but if a space gets plenty of natural light and the trim is in high contrast with the wall color, then the room can feel crisp and spacious even with dark walls.

When you have furniture to paint and you need it ready to use in a certain amount of time, remember to consider the weather. Humid weather can often extend the time it takes for paint to fully dry.

A very important preparation step not to be skipped when painting interior walls is cleaning. Make sure the walls are free of dirt and baseboards and the doorways are free of dust particles. Use a damp cloth for best results. Also, fill in any dings or holes with wood putty.

When planning an interior paint job, don’t forget to take architectural details into account, including molding, trim, columns, and brackets. Remember that varied intensities and hues can really serve to complement architecture and the overall room decor.
