To help you estimate and budget the amount of paint needed for your painting project, we recommend using our BOYSEN^® Paint Calculator. The BOYSEN^® Paint Calculator helps you find the closest estimate by considering various factors including the type of surface to be painted, type of painting project and type of paint product to be used.
 

In selecting what paint to use, you may use our BOYSEN^® Choose Your Paint or BOYSEN^® Interactive Product Usage.

The main difference between the two is that BOYSEN^® Choose Your Paint gives you a list of paint product candidates considering various factors including but is not limited to, type of surface to be painted, interior or exterior and painting or repainting. On the other hand, BOYSEN^® Interactive Product Usage gives you a list of paint product candidates depending on which part of your house is to be painted. Please feel free to use whichever tool fits you best!

The color of your room has the power to affect your mood and even the activities that you do in it. To help you explore possible color combinations that would fit your taste and style, we recommend using our BOYSEN^® Mix-&-Match™.

Mix-&-Match is an interactive tool that lets you play around with various colors available and the look that you can create by combining different shades. With the different settings available, it will help you imagine and picture the possible outcomes of your project. 

With such a colorful world, it’s not surprising that you were able to find inspiration just around the corner. Whether it’s from a magazine or an ordinary object, you can get the closest BOYSEN^® paint color equivalent by using our Color Capture feature in the BOYSEN^® app or bringing a sample to our BOYSEN^® Mix-&-Match™ Stations, where a batch of your selected color will be mixed.

When painting a room, it is recommended to start with the ceiling. Followed by walls, trims and fixtures. And finally, the floor as needed.

Similar to painting interiors, when painting a structure’s façade, it is recommended to start at the highest point. Paint each side, one at a time. Finish off by painting the trim.
 

The amount of time it takes for paint to dry would depend on a number of external factors such as room temperature and weather. In general, it can be said that it is dry set-to-touch within 1 to 2 hours for water-based paints and 8 to 10 hours for Enamel and Alkyd-based paints. However, coatings fully cure in seven (7) days regardless of type.

The frequency of repainting would depend on a number of factors, including but is not limited to the status of the existing paint, the activities being done in the area and the like. However, on average, a typical paint job would last at least 5 years.

In general, it is not okay to do so. Because of paint incompatibility, the solvent-based paint will cause the water-based paint to wrinkle.

In general, it is okay to do so.

Roller or brush marks are often caused by wrong termination techniques and/or paint dilution. You may minimize the occurrence of this problem, make sure to use a “W’ or “M” pattern when roller painting. This will help spread the paint, thereby creating an even film. Otherwise, you may opt to seek professional help. We would be glad to find you a contractor that would match your painting requireiments. Just fill up our Find a Contractor form.
