Essential questions you need to ask yourself when choosing a paint

Whether you are planning to paint one room or the entire house, it is important to choose the right paint. Paint comes in a variety of sheen and finishes. It’s best to try swatches at home to see how a color looks on the wall in your room’s lighting.

In your quest to choose the right paint for your house, you will face many questions. Fret not as we are here to help you.

Here are a few important questions that we have listed for you that you need to ask yourself before choosing a paint. Sometimes asking the right questions is the answer. So, here we go:

1. Which is the best paint for the walls?

Before choosing the color, you must select the right brand. The quality of finish, application, mold resistance, and coverage all are very important when choosing the right brand. Always select shades that are curated for versatility and elegance so that you cannot go wrong with any color! Our paint colors should be durable & should have the smoothness, and good coverage.

2. Which  finish should I select?

Well, that one question is difficult yet easy to answer. The choice of sheen depends upon the mood you wish to create in a room. The color of the wall is the first thing that you and your guests will notice on entering the room. If you wish to create an elegant and glamorous look, then interior emulsions with metallic finish is an excellent choice. For a subtle finish, go for designer finish without metallic sheen. Matte finish is perfect for low traffic areas like ceilings where they won’t get dirty easily. Low sheen paints that are easy to wash are an excellent choice for those who have kids at home.

3. Have I tested the color on the walls?

The best way to choose a color is to try out a few swatches. It’s best to narrow down your choices and then try a few testers in your room before spending money on the gallons of paint. You can use leftover paint to touch up old furniture and other items in the house.

4. Have I seen the wall sample more than once?

Look at the swatches on the wall more than once. Look at them under various lighting. Pick a swatch that looks the best most of the time and especially at that time when you are most likely to be spending time in that particular room.

5. Have I tested the paint against the furniture and fabrics?

While choosing a paint color, don’t see it in isolation. It must be in in sync with your existing furniture and fabrics. Thus, while taking a call on the color do keep elements like furniture, fabrics, accessories and flooring in mind.

6. Have I considered the size of the room?

Different hues have the power to make the room look larger or smaller than they are. Lighter and brighter colors can make a small room appear big, whereas dark colors can make bigger rooms look cozy. This rule is not cast in stone. You can break this rule provided you are using the color in the right fashion.
