Here we have blocking of water based paint when the door has been shut before it had properly cured. Blocking occurs when the paint sticks and tears away. It can happen on doors and windows. This was not the only defect in this job but highlights how important it is to understand what you are painting and look for the smartest solution... So much easier in the long-run to paint the door if it had been taken down.

World War II was revolutionary for paints

During World War II, there was a shortage of linseed oil which lead to the production of artificial resins from alcohols and acids. These artificial resins replaced oil as a paint base because they are cheap to make, more durable, and better than oil bases at holding colour.

Although the methods and materials have evolved since the early times, it seems that the purpose of painting and decorating has remained constant.

Living in the tropics adds a whole new range of paint issues. This lichen growth may damage coatings so needs to be removed. Lichen (and moss) can be cleaned off with oxygen bleach or vinegar and a good scrubbing. If the affected surface also require the removal of old, peeling paint, the best way to take on both tasks at the same time is by using a pressure washer.

The more texture your walls have, the thicker the nap you'll want on your roller cover so it can reach into crevices and give complete coverage. For example, you'll want to go with a thick nap if you're painting concrete walls. But for plasterboard, a thin nap is preferred. If you go with a nap that's too thick, you might actually create texture where you don't want it, so be prepared to give the salesperson details about what you're painting when you're buying your painting supplies.

Spray painting can make your project much faster and easier once you get the hang of it. However you need to take great care to mask up and protect surrounding objects as over spray (carried by a breeze) can easily affect other surfaces such as this garage door here... or perhaps your car... or neighbor's property... If this does happen, then a cut and polish will normally be enough to remove the over spray, but it is much easier to avoid in the first place!
