If you are planning on having guests over frequently this winter, the walls of your gathering spaces may take a lot of wear and tear. At CertaPro Painters of NW Richmond & Midlothian, VA, we know selecting the right products can keep these interior areas looking great for years to come. Here are some of our interior painting tips:<\/p>\n
Choose Durable Paint Finishes<\/strong><\/p>\n Obviously, not all painting products are created equally, with some products being better suited for areas that are more susceptible to wear and tear. We recommend satin or semi-gloss finishes as they’re resistant to scruffs and are much easier to clean that flat finishes. Additionally, these finishes can handle a room’s daily use while keeping the walls looking polished.<\/p>\n Go with Neutral, Resilient Colors<\/strong><\/p>\n Light neutrals and mid-tone colors conceal smudges and fingerprints better than darker shaders. Consider colors like gray, beige, or classic whites to brighten your space while hiding minor imperfections.<\/p>\n Consider Washable Paints<\/strong><\/p>\n For areas that are prone to stains and scuffs, washable or scrubbable paints are a lifesaver. These paints are specially formulated to allow you to easily wipe away marks without damaging the finish.<\/p>\n Touch-Up Kits for Quick Fixes<\/strong><\/p>\n For small touch-ups, we recommend having a small amount of paint on hand. Busy homes make small marks and scratches inevitable, so having a touch-up kit available makes it easy to address minor issues.<\/p>\n If you’re ready to update the look of your high-traffic rooms with a durable, beautiful finish, schedule your free estimate<\/a> with one of CertaPro Painters of NW Richmond & Midlothian, VA expert painters today!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" If you are planning on having guests over frequently this winter, the walls of your gathering spaces may take a lot of wear and tear.
