Answer 1

I agree with Kittykat. But..the paint you used may need to cure so wait a couple of days before leaping into something else!Did they use a primer that would show this beautiful gold to it's best?Ask questions before painters paint so you will know what to expect. Ask the paint store how to apply it best and what primers to use also. When you spend money and you want something to last it is always best to know what to expect and then you can have it redone if the painter messed up. Make sure to get everything in writing with contractors of any kind. I am from a family of contractors,builders,relators, rental properties, etc and it is best to cover yourself up front!Best wishes for a golden experience!

Answer 2

First off all,, any colour consisting of Yellow, golds in those areas aren't opaque. They have an irridecency (sp),,, You might want to do a tan over glaze to antique the walls slightly. This may hide the roller marks, and make it blend as if you did it on purpose. Mix water, paint, and glaze, and rag it on,, and rub off. It makes for spectacular walls.
Hope this helps ya.
