Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Should I use water-based paint or oil base for interior painting?
A: In the past, oil-based paint was known for covering better, the paint was smoother and more durable than latex paints. The downside is that it yellows, fades, and cracks more than water-based paint and the fumes are annoying and unhealthy to breathe. Water-based paints don’t yellow or fade as much, they dry quicker and are much easier on the environment and the homeowner. The downside was that they didn’t lay down as smooth and weren’t as durable as oil paint. With the advent of VOC laws (volatile organic compounds), many painting contractors believe oil paints aren’t as good as they once were. (Although Benjamin Moore oil paints still work well). The VOC rules have pushed the paint companies into improving water based paints to the point where they rival or surpass their older paint relatives in smoothness, hardness and durability.
Q. What are paint primers and when do I use them?
A. Primers are paints designed to adhere to surfaces and then to allow the interior or exterior paints to adhere to the primer and perform their functions of durability, protection, and beauty. Primers are a necessary first step when painting porous surfaces like bare wood, new drywall. They are not needed over previously painted surfaces unless they are smoke or water stained in which case a shellac based paint primer is usually called for. . Painters will often use a tinted primer when a major color change is required in order to reduce the number of paint coats needed. Like all paint products, you get what you pay for, and quality primers cost more than lessor quality products. There are many types of primers for many different uses. Call the painters at Cascade Painting and Restoration to answer your painting questions.
Q: What is acrylic (latex) paint?
A: Paint that contains a binder of synthetic acrylic resins, sometimes referred to by the generic term latex paint. The binder imparts adhesion and strongly influences such properties as gloss, durability, flexibility, and toughness. Quality paint has more acrylic resin than lessor paints. The best exterior water-based paints are 100% acrylic.
