This past week-end we painted a house with 'low luster' latex paint. Big mistake. d* When it dried , the 'low luster' left the stucco way too shiny. Love the color....hate the shine. Is there any way to bring down the shiny without repainting? I seem to remember something a long time ago about using a vinegar and water solution to dull paint. Anyone know anything about this?
Does anyone have any ideas of anything to do that is easier than repainting?
Thanks
Trish
I wonder if you could use one of those liquid deglosser products.... I would check with a local professional paint store like Sherwin Williams or something. They can probably help you right out. I would however bring either one of the cans of the product you used with you or at least the specifics on it as I bet the solution is going to be really dependent on the product that you actually used to paint in the first place.
I'd give a couple of months Trish. The shine may fade a bit. Lots of paint looks shiney when it's fresh but dulls over a few weeks.
