What should I do to use the paint method more than once?

[Michael Wal]

Hi guys, this is my first question on this forum, I am new. What I wanted to know is, if I want to paint something in one class and then paint another thing in a different class, how should I do this with the

public void paint(Graphics g) {} 

method? I was told to use paintComponent but don't quite know what it is ... I appreciate all help

probably best to go through this first, then re-post with any problems/questions
