Interior Painting Tips – How to Save Time and Money Using Deep Tinted Paints

Tuesday, July 27th, 2010

Interior painting with deep tinted paints such as midnight blue, pumpkin orange and passion red can be a very challenging experience for any homeowner. The one thing virtually all deep tinted paints have in common is they are mixed in a neutral base. The neutral base that these colors are mixed in offer little help in coverage. Before the colorant is added you can look straight through to the bottom of the can. So what steps can a homeowner take to improve coverage and save time.

Below are 6 important things you must do to assure coverage while using deep tinted paints for your interior painting projects.

1. The first and most important thing you shoud do is apply a primer that has been tinted to match the top coat you plan to use. These tinted primers have a lot more pigment and will cover better, making the transition to your dark color neutral based color easier. This will reduce cost and time.

2. Pay attention to your spread rate. Avoid over overspreading deep tinted color paints. Dry rolling will only reduce the hiding power. Apply paint at the manufactures recommended spread rate.

Painting : a Glorious Art of Colors

Saturday, June 26th, 2010

Painting is an aesthetic representation of the imaginative mindset of a painter. This form of art exerted tremendous influence on the society since its inception several thousand years ago. Painters are like alchemists who can make formidable creations intermingling colors on a piece of canvas.

It is through painting artists of all ages portray the conditions of the mainstream society, the various ethos, culture and traditions. A work of painting can best reveal the good and evil of the everyday life and urge the common people to be good in thought and action so that the society becomes beautiful and beneficial to the mankind.

Originated as a creative pastime as cave depictions by our early ancestors, painting has undergone several alterations with time. The history of painting clearly indicates the various transformations of paintings from cave paintings to watercolor paintings and oil paintings.

The use of colors and shades are very important in painting. As a melodious music is not possible to originate without appropriate rhythm similarly a work of painting does not get life without perfect shades. Painting is a spontaneous manifestation of the true self of an artist; it speaks out his heart through the tinges of colors.
