Can I paint over a surface that has peeling paint?

FAQs Frequently Asked Questions
No. The underlying cause for peeling paint is often moisture related. In other words, moisture gets behind the paint film and works in unison with temperature and humidity changes to weaken the adhesion of the paint. The source of the moisture must be eliminated or subsequent coats of paint will also peel. Determine the source of the moisture, fix it and then scrape away the loose paint.

How do I calculate how much paint I need for a given surface?

Do-It-Yourself | Sherwin-Williams | Painting Selection FAQs
First calculate the actual square feet of space that will be coated. Then you will need to determine how many square feet a gallon of the intended product to be used will cover. Then it is just a matter of dividing the number of square feet to be covered by the number of square feet that a given product can cover. For example, if the product covers 400 square feet, and you are coating 1,000 square feet (1,000 divided by 400 = 2.5), you will need 2.5 gallons.

Why does the surface I just painted with acrylic paint have droplets on it?

Guthrie Bowron - FAQ
When acrylic paint drys sometimes small light coloured droplets will appear on the surface. This usually happens if the newly painted surface is exposed to moisture, either by dew, high humidity or rain on the outside or steam etc. on the inside. These droplets cause no downgrading of the paint film's durability. They only affect the appearance. Wash the surface with sugar soap, then rinse with plenty of water.

How do I eliminate the tip from spitting paint onto the surface I am spraying?

ASM Spray Equipment FAQs
The first would be damage or wear in the spray tip or gun needle. Replace the tip if it’s worn or damaged. To check the gun, remove the tip and guard assembly. Repeatedly trigger the gun, watching for spits or leakage when the trigger of the gun is released. Any leakage indicates that there is a problem with the needle/seat in the gun and it needs to be cleaned or rebuilt. The second reason is not mechanical damage, but rather a characteristic of airless spray.
