How Long Does Paint Take to Dry?
When starting a painting project—whether you’re refreshing entire rooms or giving furniture and décor items a new look—knowing how long paint takes to dry can make or break the results. Drying time affects everything from how smooth the finish looks to when another coat can be applied or the space can be used again. Factors like paint type, room temperature, and even the humidity in the air all play a role in how quickly or slowly paint sets.
