While at a Christmas party last week, a friend asked why they have Shiney spots on their wall after they just painted.
After some further conversation, I found that several holes were repaired from Molley bolts that used to be on the wall. Although I did not see any pictures of the walls in question these shiny spots are the result of one or more of these problems.
– when the holes were repaired the repaired area was not sanded down enough
-after making the repairs to the holes the repair was not given a coat of primer before painting
-the use of a paintbrush to paint the repaired areas which can cause paint to give the paint a different sheen than using a roller.
-when clients have existing paint that was used it has often not been mixed enough prior to application.
-finally the age of the paint being used and when it was last painted affect touch-ups. Paint will fade, the paint will have a different sheen due to wear, and due to the usage of a way, there can be dirt or grime that will result in two different appearances from old to the new paint.
Hope that answers your question if you have any more contact us!
