I am going to paint a room and would like to detach the light switch plate from the wall. I want to paint just under the area the light switch covers and when dry reattach the light switch plate. How do I get the light switch plate off the wall? There are some little buttons covering the screws holding the plate on. How do I get the buttons off please?

Tips for Picking Paint Colors: If you don’t think you’re a very creative person...


    Tips for Picking Paint Colors:


      If you don’t think you’re a very creative person but want to paint your house or even just a room, you might be feeling overwhelmed by the challenge of picking a color! Don’t panic – here are some top tips for helping you choose a great color scheme for your painting project.


      1.Use the color wheel. Don’t be afraid to take a look at the color wheel – it’s not just for decorators to show off to their customers with. You can ask someone in a paint shop to explain to you how primary, secondary and tertiary colors work together (or sometimes against each other).


      2.Try and decide what kind of ‘energy’ and brightness you want in the area you are painting. Is it a lounge that you want to be cosy? Or a bedroom that’s modern and bright? It really helps to visualize the end result.


      3.Are you hoping to your space look bigger or a large room cozier? If so, you can use color to help you. Small spaces will benefit from pale, cool colors and larger areas can be made to feel more intimate with warm, darker colors.


      4.Watch out for lighting issues. Natural daylight shows the color in its truest way whereas fluorescent lights cast more of a blue tone over the overall color. So make sure you pay attention to the lighting issues around the area you are painting.


      5.If you want to play it safe you can always go for neutral colors. These are colors that don’t stand out but you can use furniture and decorations to really add the splashes of color while keeping the walls in more subtle neutrals.


      Have fun! You can always paint really small areas to see how it looks on the wall. And try to be bold – you’ll probably be surprised with how good it looks.

How do I calculate the amount of paint needed for walls in a 12 foot by 16 foot room with 8 foot ceilings?

Ceiling paint estimator

Use the following formula to estimate the amount of ceiling paint you need. Double the result if the ceiling requires two coats.
1. Multiply the length of the ceiling times its width to find its area.
14 × 20 = 280 square feet
2. Divide that number by 350 (the estimated square feet covered per gallon) to figure out how many gallons of paint you need.
280 ÷ 350 = .8
For this example, you want to buy 1 gallon of ceiling paint for a single coat.

Wall paint estimator

Use the following formula to estimate the amount of wall paint you need. Double the result if the walls require two coats.

How do you remove roll a tex from wall?

If latex based paint was used, most of the time it is, spray the area with warm water then use a flat scraper to remove.. It is very messy when doing a large area. Cover as many surfaces as you can to protect. Try a small area in a corner first to see how it will work, if it works fine then do the whole wall.

I am home this weekend and I decided to paint my living room. Is there an amount of coats that you are needing to put on the wall? It has been a while sense I have painted. I heard maybe about 3 to be...

if the existing paint is a light color and you are doing the same color, then 2 coats should suffice,. Painting it darker, I would go 3 coats, painting it lighter, you may need to go more than 3 go to harbor freight tools and buy some plastic drop sheets, masking tape {blue} and some cheap brushes and roller and tray, turn on some tunes and a glass of wine, enjoy the "me time" depending on the quality of paint too will determine the coats needed, ask your home depot guy. behr brands are good cover paints. good luck have fun.{ps..wear some old clothes}

Should i use the same drywall in the bathroom as in the rest of the house?

I recommend using MR (Moisture Resistant) drywall for the bathroom, and possibly for the basement if there are moisture issues. It is not much more expensive, and it can save you a big headache later

How could i put a glitters with my wall at my facebook

  • SPRAY CLEAR GLITTER ON DRY WALLS -- Go to your local craft store and pick up a couple cans of spray glitter. You want a clear base so you can keep your current wall color. Look for a spray that says something like clear glitter finish or clear glitter sealer. Then just spray your walls with the clear glitter spray.

  • PAINT YOUR WALLS WITH GLITTER SPRAY PAINT -- If you want to change the color of your walls you can spray paint them with colored glitter spray paint so you get the painting and glitter done in one easy step. However, spray paint can be expensive and you may find it is difficult to get a nice even coat of paint. So this method would be good for a small room or an accent wall.

  • PAINT YOUR WALLS THEN ADD GLITTER -- This is the cheapest way to get the glittery look you want. Buy your wall paint in the color of your choice. Then buy tubes of glitter in the craft section. As you paint your walls, do one small section at a time. Then pour out a bit of glitter on a paper plate and gently blow on the glitter so it blows onto the freshly painted wall. The glitter will stick to the wet paint. Then move on to the next section and do the same thing! If you are applying two coats of paint to your walls add the glitter to the second coat.

    I took a three gang face plate of now this switch is number 1 witch operates the hall number two switch operates the sitting room. number three operates the third light in the same room. but number three...

    You need to determine where the power is coming into the box. That power line needs to be jumpered to each switch. The black of the lights will go to the other side of each switch. All neutral wires are tied together.
