Is it ok to paint the walls the same color as the ceiling if youhave low ceilings?

If it is a light color I would think it would look OK, but it will make your room look smaller. How about one wall in a dark color and a contrasting color on the walls. Make a stencil and put clouds on the ceiling. I did this in my kitchen.


Do you paint walls or trim first?

1- Door & Window frames first (and the ceilings if applicable)2- Next the Walls.3- Then you finish off with the baseboards.The reason why it's important to paint the frames before the walls is that it is much easier to cut a strait line with your brush comfortably resting on a wall (compared to the tiny edge of of frame).Now the reason why you don't paint the baseboards first is in 2 part.1- Even if you do a great job cutting in with the brush and not put any paint on the baseboards, you're still going to have tiny drops from when you roll out the wall paint.2- The most important reason for DIY's however is to create the illusion of a straighter line.The logic is simple... unless you are lying down on the floor... you will be admiring the beauty of your new paint job from a higher point than your baseboards. This means that if there should be any of the trim paint touching the wall it won't be as noticeable than having some wall paint touching the top of the baseboards.Test it... and see for yourself :)Happy Painting Everyone!

Can you use floor paint on wooden porch ceiling?

You probably can. As long as the masonry paint is 100% acrylic, you will have no problem at all using it on a wooden porch ceiling. Using a cheaper vinyl paint is not suggested on wood though as it will craze and crack over time.

What type o fpaint for ceiling bathroom?

I think I would go for a lighter colour, because you don't want to put too much emphasis on the ceiling. However, if you want to paint the walls a darker colour, i think that could be a great choice. But in the ends, its up to you!

It takes 36 minutes for 7 people to paint 4 walls How many minutes does it take 9 people to paint 7 walls?

To find the time it takes for 9 people to paint 7 walls, we first determine the rate at which the original group works. Seven people can paint 4 walls in 36 minutes, which means they can paint 1 wall in 36/4 = 9 minutes. Therefore, 9 people can paint 1 wall in 9/9 = 1 minute. To paint 7 walls, it would then take 7 minutes.
