I have recently had my entire condo repainted and redecorated. The livingroom is a burnt orange. Someone knocked a piece of furniture into it and there is now a small white chip where the paoint used to be. How can I repair this? Thank you.

Do you have any paint left over from the burnt orange? How deep is chip. There's a product "Dap" spackeling to fill the chip follow its directions. When you repaint the spot with small brush start in the center of chip and brush out wards from its center and let the brush run out of paint. This will help "flare" the paint out in depth of color and blend in better to other new paint. If the chip area was rolled and to be perfect a mini roller of the same nap thickness would match the same"texture" and reflect the same light to match color. You can have a wall that is sprayed and rolling touch will be tough to match. When you have wall that's rolled a brush can be tough to match it. Bottom lines a wall can be painted with spray. Roller. Brush, and the fine "texture" that bounces light differently will effect the hue and very slightly change how the color looks
