You started redecorating your house but you are not sure you have picked the right paint in order to obtain the best results in all the rooms of your house. Here are some tips regarding home painting using emulsion paint. Even though paint is a very common material, the technology used for obtaining it is quite complicated. Paint usually consists of pigments and a binder (oil or water-based). That is why, long-term storage will cause the two constituents of the paint to separate in the can; when you want to reuse it, the contents of the can must be well stirred (except for the non-drip paints) to ensure that the pigments and the binder are uniformly mixed. While some paints give different surface finishes, others are designed for particular jobs (primer, undercoat, anti-condensation, radiator-paint, fire-retardant, bituminous). This makes the selection of paint quite a difficult task without the help of an expert.
