Painting exposed brown beams

Prime and paint with a spray painter. You will need to tape off and it will absorb a good deal of paint.

Can you share a photo? That would help! :)

Another dark color - chocolate, dark brown, or black. You should use a primer for it though.

Hi this is Peggy. Hope this is the information you are looking for about painting your exposed beams. Good luck with your project and stay well. How do you paint over stained wood beams?

paint over stained wood beam. No need to sand it off, a good oil primer, followed by 2 coats of finish paint should be fine. Yep, the ceiling paint will work fine.

Prime with Kilz primer. Then paint.

Without primer you may expect poor paint coverage and potentially brown knot holes and staining coming through the coverage if your paint color is light. Even with primer this happens.
