Any special tips for a very intricate indoor metal handrail (steps from first floor to second floor). I really don’t want to make a mess of the carpets or wall.

Thanks.

I want to repaint my aluminum garage door a different color. It has the color that it came with (off white) and I want to paint it white.

Hi,
My pool deck looks pretty bad. It has cracks, although small, still stand out like varicose veins. I would like to change the color which is currently white to beige w/something blue somwhere. Any suggestions on how to get started?

Thanks for your time and help.

Sincerely,

Linda wislon

Hi! I have some old plastic toys that I’d like to update but it seems that most people advise spray painting. the problem is I’d like to use multiple colors on the same surface and I am afraid of running the colors together. do you have any recommendations for painting these toys-what kind of paint should I use and what products should I use to keep the paint from peeling/washing off? Also any suggestions for how to paint indoors in a place without great ventilation would be helpful. Thanks!

A landscaper stained my outside concrete patio with Behr Semi Transparent concrete stain. Within three months it was peeling off. Now it is a mess and looks horrible.
I don’t think he primed or sealed the concrete before or after applying the stain.

How can I correct this problem?

Thank you

Eren,

Actually, I think we have just the answer for you. Here’s a video how-to on making a roof painting platform that I think answers your exact question.

So many people gives tons of advise hot to paint, what paint to use, this and that, but nobody talks about how to paint the high places on the steep roof without putting sidekicks on the roof. I don’t want to nail on the singles it’ll cause a leak later on, is there anyway else?thanks

This morning my son-in-law had a small disaster on our concrete paver patio. He
spilled splotches of white wood primer. We
NEED to cover/correct this. Could you suggest a concrete stain? Ideally, I would
like to obtain a varied color appearance on
the rough concrete blocks. Ideas? Thanks.
