SELECTING AND USING PAINT

Exterior Paint Indoors

I have leftover exterior paint that I don't want to go to waste. Can I use it inside the house?
You can use exterior paint indoors, but it might not roll on as easily as interior paint, nor will the color be as rich. Interior paint has more pigment, or color, than exterior paint. Interior paints are also avail-able in a wider selection of colors. Though it's OK to use exterior paint indoors, you should never use interior paint outdoors. Interior paint lacks the weather resistance and durability necessary for outdoor use.

One Shade Off

When I paint a room, the area I cut in with a brush around door and window trim dries lighter than the areas I roll. What can I do about this?
You might be applying a thicker coat with the roller than with the brush. To avoid this, use a 2- or 2 1/2-inch latex brush with exploded-tip slanted bristles, which leave a fine, soft line. Apply two coats about 1 1/2 inches wide around the trim and the door and window frames. Then use a roller with a 3/8-inch nap to roll as close to the trim as you can.

Roll the paint onto the walls so the the film thickness matches the brushed coat. Use minimal pressure with the roller. (Pressing hard makes the coat thinner.) Make sure you stir your paint often. If the pigment settles to the bottom, it can cause variations in the paint's shade.
