Introduction
A good paint job starts with proper preparation. Following the correct steps before painting not only ensures a professional finish, but also prolongs the life of the paint. Here we leave you a step-by-step guide to prepare your house before painting.
1. Clean surfaces
Dust, grease or debris can affect paint adhesion. Use a damp cloth or cleaning solution to clean the walls and ceilings.
2. Repair imperfections
Fill cracks, holes or imperfections with putty or plaster. Sand the repaired areas so they are smooth and uniform.
3. Protect furniture and floors
Cover furniture, floors and objects with plastic or tarps. Use painter’s tape to protect edges, baseboards and window frames.
4. Apply primer (if necessary)
On walls with dark colors or new surfaces, apply a coat of primer before painting. This improves adhesion and ensures uniform color.
5. Gather the right tools
Make sure you have rollers, brushes, paint trays and other accessories necessary to make the job easier.
Conclusion
Preparation is key to obtaining a perfect finish. Follow these tips and transform your space with paint that looks professional and long-lasting.
