I have purchased new casement windows clad on the outside bare wood on the inside. I have to paint these windows. Do I have to paint all of the sides as well including the cavities. It would entail removing the window.

No, just prime the exposed wood.

Steel Cabinet Painting

on Jun 20, 2000

We have pink steel cabinets (from probably the 50's) which are in great condition. We wanted to paint them white to brighten and modernize the kitchen. Any suggestions on what paint I would need and preparation involved? Do I need to strip the existing finish first? Many thanks!

slight mold on kids wall

on Jun 21, 2000

Hi, I am getting ready to re-do my 3 year old daughters room, there is slight mold on the wall corners,how do I get rid of, should I wash the walls before I paint? What kind of paint do I buy for a kids room (fingerprints, crayon, etc.)and does the chalkboard paint work, and do I put it on the wall before or after I paint? Whew! I am out of breath. Can you tell I dont have a clue at all? :)
