Tips for Choosing the Right Interior House Painting Colors in Highwood

If you want to give your home a beautiful custom paint job or if you want to start your own house painting business you may want to consider exactly which interior house painting colors in Highwood to use for interior and exterior projects.

As a professional house painter I know the time saving value of getting to know your products. When you find which house paints work best for you and how they perform you will be able to turn your jobs all that much faster with less headaches.

Always use the best quality paints and primers. Don’t show up at someone’s doorstep with humdrum brands. Instead pretend you are going to be painting a multimillion dollar home. Not everyone may agree on the same brands of house paint of course. Don’t skimp on your own home either.

Matte finish is a lower sheen than eggshell, yet very washable, very architectural looking. While nobody would even think of using a primer as a ceiling paint, this stuff works! It leaves a soft, pure white, flat even finish with no streaks or lap lines. You can tint it to whatever color you want. It also makes a great block out primer.

The benefits to using this solid white primer on ceilings are being that it is a primer, it grabs to any surface. It dries and can be re-coated in just one hour and coverage is about 150 square feet more per gallon than regular paint. One last point is that you can tell where you have to roll on the second coat because the first coat over looks likes a primer coat.
