How to select that perfect Accent color.

Considering doing an accent wall in the room you are looking to paint but having a difficult time choosing that perfect accent color?

   It is most likely your accent wall will be the darker of the two colors you choose. A simple way to help you make this decision is to choose the lighter color first then from the same color sample strip select a color that is the darkest.
     This reduces the chance of a clash between the two colors. Selecting a color from a different color strip can be risky.

  The two colors may look good in the paint store but when you gat a full room of the colors they may not coordinate as you had hoped. 

 Keep in mind also that the darker of the two colors may likely need 2 or more finish coat to get the color depth needed. Darker colors contrary to popular belief do not cover as well as most lighter colors today.

  The long story made short for this is that the tint used in todays pant is not as good as previous years in terms of coverage. 


Selecting the correct roller cover for your job.

How to paint over crayon marks.

   The kid's found the crayons and have just made an art project of their bed room walls. Clean it off? Sorry there is a 99% chance this is a waste of time. Your going to have to repaint and do a better job of hiding the crayons. Step one is lightly sand the crayon marks on the wall. This not to remove all of the crayon marks but simply get some of it off so the texture of the crayon marks do not show through your fresh paint. You will need to prime. If your facing a project as large as pictured you will need to prime the entire wall. Some latex primers will seal the marks out but ask the paint supplier for their recommendation for sealing crayon marks. It is a possibility you will need to use a oil based primer. Oil based primer/sealers are the best for this job but do present there own set of problems.     The smell is likely #1 on the hassle's of oil based primer/sealers,#2 slow drying times and clean up.   So do some work and find a latex primer/sealer that will do
