When it is raining outside, exterior painting is fruitless. You will end up with an uneven coat and curing (drying) of the paint would be faulty. For the best performance of your paint, it is best to have dry weather and moderate temperatures.

If you are doing interior painting while it is raining, make sure that you have adequate ventilation for your well-being as well as to help the paint dry.

ive found that the use of an umbrella is absolutely essential I.e. Outdoor electric jet tubs with Bose playing "how does it feel" but seriously folks of course u can,,,...,,,a watercolor!!!

Answer: Interior paint sometimes requires ventilation, however by opening windows, you are adding more humidity to the air which will slow the drying time considerably. As long as you are using water based paints, you should be able to paint with the house closed up. Running the air conditioner will remove the humidity from the air which will help the paint to dry in a reasonable time.

If someone in the household is intolerant to the fumes, they probably should not be in the house at all until the paint has dried whether the house is open or closed.

If the temperature is above 65f in the rooms you are painting, I don't see why you shouldn't .

As long as the area you are painting is climate controlled, then you won't have a problem. If not, then you could run into the same drying and blocking issues as if you painted on a humid day.

As long as the rain is not hitting the surface you are painting, you will be ok. If the water hits the newly painted surface, the paint will flow and your house painting work will be ruined.

Technically, you could, but it is definitely better not to. An excess of humidity could cause a variety of problems. One of the main ones is ventilation for you.

Yes, the paint guy at my hardware store says you can - has UV protection and anti-fungus. Coverage requires a bit more paint per square metre.

How can you tell a load bearing wall?

All exterior walls in a home are load bearing. The exterior walls on the gable end of your house do not bear much load, but the walls that the hip of the roof bear on carry your roof and ceiling joints. Interior walls are another story. Usually in a smaller one story home there is a wall that runs the midspan of the house that is load bearing for your roof and ceiling joints.
