What season is it not easy to crack when painting walls?

In addition, it is also possible that the wall cracks due to foundation settlement and other reasons, which leads to the cracking of latex paint.

3. Improper construction and maintenance of latex paint will also lead to cracking of wall paint. For example, when we brush the latex paint flat, we don't brush the primer, or brush the topcoat before the primer dries in order to catch up with the progress, or directly open the doors and windows to ventilate after brushing the latex paint, which are easy to cause the latex paint to crack.
