Should I Repaint All My Walls or Just the Dark One?

Asked By CuriousCat24 On

I'm repainting my living room to a white or cream color. There was one dark brown wall, while the other walls were a lighter shade. The lighter walls look great after two coats, but the dark brown wall still isn't perfect. Should I add a third coat to only the dark wall that needs it, or do I need to re-coat all the walls? Thanks!

You only need to focus on the dark wall. Since it's hard to cover dark colors, it's fine to add a third coat there. You're good with the lighter walls as they already look great. Just make sure to use primer next time for darker shades!

Don't stress about the other walls! Just give that dark wall another coat. Dark colors can be tricky to cover, and adding more paint will help, plus it saves you from needing to buy primer again. Use what you have; it makes sense!

Exactly! It's about getting the best coverage without unnecessary expense. Just go with what works for you!
