The living room is painted with beige or beige latex paint, which looks better

Latex paint needs to be diluted before it can be applied.

About the dilution of latex paint: this is what we often call adding water.

There is a saying about the proportion of diluting latex paint with water, not all latex paint needs to be diluted or added with the same amount of water, (for example, the original imported products of master paint are used directly without adding water in the United States, and we do not recommend adding water) The amount of water added is usually controlled between 5% and 20% of the amount of latex paint by volume.

The purpose of adding water is to improve the leveling of construction, and unreasonable water addition is easy to cause poor film formation of latex paint, and even depowdering. The dilution ratio of latex paint is recommended to be carried out according to the instructions on the barrel, of course, an experienced paint sales store will provide construction suggestions according to the dryness of the wall and the seasonal temperature and humidity, which is recommended to be consulted when you buy paint. You can also let the paint shop send technicians to provide on-site technical guidance free of charge.

After mixing the latex paint and water evenly, let it stand for 20 minutes to eliminate air bubbles, so as to reduce the needle holes or small bubbles that appear after the latex paint is applied to the wall. Many workers won't do this, so it's better to paint it yourself according to the standard. If you are a more demanding person, I recommend that the effect is best if you filter it through a strainer after dilution and then rest it.

3.When the still time has passed, it's time to paint. In this case, it is necessary to first moisten the brush tool such as a wool brush or roller with water, and then shake off the excess water before dipping it in latex paint.

The next step is painting.
