Enhance the Look of Your Home With Residential Painters

If you need some worthy residential painters for your home, you have to choose the right company and that company has to choose the right kind of paint. As a popular crew of residential painters serving Edgewater MD, we here at Bay Country Painters would like to share some tips on your utilization of the right kind of paint. When you choose us as your residential painters, we will handle these decisions for you. Nonetheless, a little education goes a long way and it can’t hurt for you to learn all that there is to know about paint.

All paint types share three common elements: the pigments, the binders (film-formers) and the solvents (or vehicles). Pigments give the paint color. A binder will help the pigment adhere to the surface to which it is being applied. Your solvents allow and help the paint spread onto, over and ultimately penetrate the surface. Knowing these fun facts will help you make sure that you and your residential painters are on top of which type of paint you should use.

The great bulk of interior paint jobs are done using water-based paints. They dry quickly and make the job carried out by our residential painters a swifter and more hassle-free experience as paint drying time not being a major concern. Common issues encountered by residential painters are blistering and/or bubbling, but they are far less an issue when going water based.

Begin all residential painting jobs with a good coat of primer. Bay Country Painters has found that our painting projects come out looking far nicer and with better adherence when priming the surface prior to painting it. Your standard water-based paint as applied by our residential painters is applied smoothly and evenly.

Add just a little pop to your home as it already is. Maybe your kitchen is in the exact same state now as it was ten years ago. What about hiring some residential painters to paint your existing cabinetry? Taking standard brown to temple red or midnight blue will give off an entirely new look without the cost and hassle of an all-out renovation. We will come out and refinish or just repaint your cabinets.
