Question 1

What’s the best paint for older or plaster walls?

Acrylic latex paint works best for older plaster walls — it’s breathable and won’t trap moisture. Using a primer designed for plaster prevents bubbling and ensures even coverage.

Question 3

Can you paint over wood paneling?

Accepted Answer

Yes — with proper prep. Lightly sand, clean, and prime with a stain-blocking primer before applying paint. This helps cover the grain and prevents bleed-through.

Question 4

What color schemes suit older country homes?

Accepted Answer

Soft neutrals like cream, sage, or warm gray highlight architectural details in heritage homes while keeping rooms bright and timeless.
