Small random-orbit or pad sanders make this job go faster. (Wallis first covers these boundaries with Synkoloid patching compound so no edge is visible after sanding.) As shown, you want to make sure that there is a feathered, smooth transition from exposed wood to old paint. For areas that might get close scrutiny, you can follow up with a 100- or 120-grit rubdown to erase any scratches. House Painting Westminster
If you have two weeks, a ladder and some experience, this makes an excellent DIY project. On most surfaces, it is forgiving of mistakes and easy to work with. Correcting mistakes only adds more time and not much more expense. However, a professional will get it done faster and with a better finish. If you don’t have 2 to 3 weeks to spare, find a professional painter near you today. Westminster House Painters CO
"Father son, Leonardo and Michelangelo as I would like to call them (Rick & Richard in fact). Did the interior trim of myn1,600 unit, master bathroom some ceilings and loads of touch up in all rooms. Professional, no mess, great advice on what made sense, timely and efficient. They took 2 days to do a job that I though would take longer - done really well and done to the budget. I would recommend them and will be using them again for another paint job I have coming up." Westminster Home Painting
Painters often tint primer close to the color of the top coat, but Wallis thinks that's a recipe for "holidays," or missed spots. Instead, he tints his primer a contrasting color. "If I can see the color coming through, I know I need to apply more paint," he says. On the cottage shown in this story, he chose a gray-blue primer to go under a peach top coat.
