Why does my wall look patchy after painting?
Patchiness usually happens if you don't use enough paint, or apply it unevenly. Using a touch more paint, and painting in small sections one at a time, usually does the trick. Also, rolling in a grid fashion will get you an even finish too. But, sometimes, changes in the gloss level leave things patchy.
Is it normal for paint to look patchy dry?
Patchiness can happen if you don't apply enough coats of paint. The number of coats you need depends on several variables, including the color of the paint, the primer you use and the previous wall color you're trying to cover. If you don't have enough paint on your roller, it can leave behind patchy areas.
