Can I paint my garden wall in the rain?
Question:Or can I paint it if it's been raining recently, or going to rain soon?
Answers:
if you have a tarp covering it.
No I would wait until warm and sunny as paint will take on wet wall and if raining it will be washed off!
yes it will save on paint.
Yes provided you use a water-based paint, and it isn't pouring out. The paint will actually spread and penetrate better!
You just gave me an idea. Think of the texture and design that might create. Wow! Painting in the rain. Good idea. Maybe even try different colors.
no. paint when the weather is dry and not raining
No really. It will not be a good job.
Wait for a dry day
I would not paint it in rain if you want it to last. The humidity also affects paint. You will probably want to wait for a sunny, warm day.
NO - my husband did - now we have streaky wall!
of coarse you can paint the wall in the rain ..then again ..and again . and again ..but if you wait till it stops raining ..and the wall dries then ..hey presto ..you will find the paint actually sticks to the wall !
