My semi gloss white oil based 10 year old cabinets are in excellent condition.

I am painting 2 walls and the ceiling in a small bathroom with a beautiful "Mediterranean" blue and would like to offset this with an "aged plaster" finish in chalky white on the remaining two walls. I have a basic understanding of the technique required to achieve this look but am cautious about using this finish in a bathroom, would this effect be too water-permeable to use in such a location? |

Hi, I'm going to paint a large mural that is 11'x 9'. That is a lot of paint and I'm wondering if I should use latex interior house paint. Is that a good cost effective way to paint a large mural? If so, how do I go about finding the correct base colors to use such as primary red, yellow, and blue to mix from? Usually, house paint is not sold in colors like I'm used to (acrylics). Any suggestions would be gravy. I've never painted like ...... read more |
