Frequently Asked Questions

Will you paint or remove our popcorn ceiling for us?

Quality Painting and Pressure Washing - Jacksonville Frequen...
Popcorn ceilings can often times be painted to improve their look. Age and condition play a major part in whether or not they can be painted safely. In some cases popcorn ceilings have been known to literally fall down in sheets when painted. The problem lies in the makeup of the popcorn texture itself, not in the paint, or the painting process. Popcorn ceiling textures are made with a chalk based substance that is very lightweight.

Can I have the ceiling refinished with a custom color?

CeilSpray
Yes. We often refinish ceilings to a custom color, most commonly in restaurants and retail spaces. All we need is the color from any major paint manufacturer's fan deck, and we will have our coating tinted to match it.

How long does it take to paint a Celestial Ceiling?

Celestial Ceilings: FAQ
Most Celestial Ceilings are completed in about a half day. We cover up everything with drop cloths after you've removed any valuables from the room. The windows get black plastic over them to get the room pitch-dark while Starman paints the Celestial Ceilings. We'll leave your home later that day without a trace. Everything in your room is in place just as it was. Makes a Great Surpise!

How do you actually paint the ceiling and will we be allowed to watch?

Celestial Ceilings: FAQ
Unfortunately, that information is closely guarded. Anyway, the work requires mental concentration. Starman must be left alone, with his eyes adjusted to the dark to do his best work. Before we begin, we'll spend some time deciding which night of the year you would like to commemorate. We'll look at a planisphere to see what the night looks like on your birthday or perhaps an anniversary.

Any suggestion on what color to paint studio walls?

FAQ
Susan and I have recently painted our studio walls a kind of medium gray-green (Benjamin Moore #1490). This color seems to work especially well with painting people since their warmer skin tones stand out nicely with this as a background and it keeps too much light from bouncing off the walls and lightening up the shadows, giving you a more dramatic light effect.

Can I paint my house any color I want, even purple and green?

Historic District Information
No. The property can remain as it is when designated and all materials can be replaced in kind with similar materials. If the roof is asphalt shingles, you can replace it with asphalt shingles of any color. You may also replace existing vinyl or aluminum siding with a different colored siding of the same material. You only need an HDC Certificate of Approval to change the materials or alter the design.

If my pet is one color and I paint it a different color, what color will it be?

Kalenteth got their homepage at Neopets.com
Pets can only be one color at a time. This means that if you have a Blue pet and paint it Strawberry, it will be red and Strawberry--it will not be a blue strawberry! If your pet is Blue and you paint it with a Yellow Paint Brush, it will not actually turn out Green. If it is Skunk and you paint it with a Faerie Paint Brush, it will not be a Skunk with pink wings. When you change a pet's color, it completely changes to the new color. There is no blending or overlapping of colors.

Can I paint your traps a different color?

RealTraps - Frequently Asked Questions
You can definitely wrap any of our traps with fabric, and in most cases you can paint them too. As long as you apply only one or two coats of paint you will not harm the performance of our standard trap models. However, you should not paint the front surface of MicroTraps or HF style traps as that will reduce their high frequency absorption. Also see the photos from Chris Hussey on our Customers page showing how he wrapped his MiniTraps with Guilford fabric.
