Painting in Dry vs. Moist Areas: Dallas Homeowner’s Guide
Dallas weather can be unpredictable—sometimes dry, sometimes humid. Here’s how it affects your paint job:
Painting in Dry Areas
- Faster Drying: Paint dries quickly, but can lead to brush marks if not careful.
- Surface Prep: Dust and debris are more common—clean thoroughly before painting.
Painting in Moist Areas
- Longer Dry Times: Humidity slows drying, increasing risk of drips or uneven finish.
- Mold & Mildew: Use mildew-resistant paints in bathrooms, kitchens, and basements.
Pro Tips for Dallas Homes
- Paint during mild weather for best results.
- Use high-quality, climate-appropriate paints.
- Always allow proper drying time between coats.
