About Ace Painting

Ace Painting is an independent publication about painting homes and commercial interiors. It is written for homeowners who do their own painting, for those who hire it out and want to know what good preparation looks like, and for property managers who keep buildings presentable between tenants.

Articles are based on paint and coating manufacturers' technical data, guidance from the US Environmental Protection Agency on lead paint and asbestos, fire and building codes where they touch painting, and the established practice of the trade. Product labels change, so the guides point you to the label and data sheet for temperatures, drying times and coverage instead of quoting figures that may not match your can.

Ace Painting does not offer painting services, does not sell leads or products, and does not represent any painting contractor or manufacturer. It publishes no paid content. If you find a mistake, please let us know through the contact form.
