Expectations for a Quality Interior Paint Job
Investing in a quality paint job can mean the difference
between painting
every few years or a paint job that will far out last
an inferior one.
1. Your furniture, floors, and carpets should be protected from start
to finish by drop cloths or poly plastic.
2. Watermarks, smoke stains, pen marks, and other unsightly blemishes
that could ‘bleed through’ the new paint
should be primed and sealed.
3. Any loose paint or other imperfections on walls or ceilings should
be removed by scraping and sanding.
4. Cracks and holes in walls and ceiling should be repaired with spackle
or drywall compound, sanded smooth and primed. Drywall
mesh tape can be applied over cracks where necessary for a more permanent
repair.
5. Holes in the woodwork should be filled, sanded smooth, and primed.
Sanding should smooth imperfections and damaged areas.
6. Open joints and gaps between surfaces should be caulked and filled
for a cleaner and more finished appearance.
7. Glossy surfaces should be dulled by sanding or undercoating to ensure
proper paint adhesion.
8. Only quality materials should be used. Quality materials give the
best results and last longer.
9. Skilled crafts people who are polite, friendly, and work efficiently should
do the work in a neat and professional
manner.
10. There should be no paint on windowpanes, carpet, floors or anything else
not being painted.
11. Touch-up paint should be left for your future convenience.
