Pool painting season is upon us. When painting fiberglass steps, be sure the steps are abraded and then an immersion service epoxy is a great way to go. #poolpainting #poolmaintenance

The ULTIMATE in scuff resistance! #scuffx #benjaminmoore

When adding an anti-slip aggregate to a floor coating, be sure to add it ONLY to your first/intermediate coat. Your topcoat will encapsulate the aggregate, creating a durable nonslip coating. #floorpainting #nonslip #paintingfloors

All paints are not created equal. Benjamin_Moore Aura offers incredible hide over dark colors. Here is one coat of interior satin Aura over black and white. Investing in a great quality paint reduces labor and material costs! #paint #wallpaint

The simple way to tell if a surface is painted with latex or oil: simply wet a rag with denatured alcohol and wipe the surface. Alcohol won't do anything to an oil finish, so if paint comes off on your rag, it's latex! Easy as that! #painting #oilorlatex

Generally speaking, it's never a good idea to paint an alkyd enamel next to acylic trim paints that are the same color. The alkyd will yellow while the acrylic color stays the same. #alkyd #acrylic #paintyellowing

#benjaminmoore has a great waterborne alkyd called Advance.

If you're lacquer finish "blushed" or has a milky look to it there is a fix! In equal parts, mix retarder, the product applied, and lacquer thinner together and apply a thin coat over the blushed finish. 90% of the time, this fixes the problem! #lacquer

Did you know that 2 coats of wall paint averages 3-4 mils in thickness? That's about the same thickness as a sheet of notebook paper! It pays to use a good quality! #goodpaint #paintadvice

Unlimited, well nearly unlimited color matching in nitrocellulose, precat, and even conversion varnish lacquers! Fast turnaround time too. #lacquermatches #cincinnaticabinets #industrialpaintincincinnati

PMS color matches! #signpaints #foamboard #pmscolormatch #signpaintcincinnati

When spraying a clearcoat over a colored lacquer, its important to use the same type as the colored lacquer. Precat over precat, nitro over nitro. #lacquer

Always APPLY a sample of paint prior to purchasing a large batch. One homeowner has to spend $6800 to have her home repainted because she selected the wrong color! #housepainting #painting #paint #painter
