Whether you're moving into a new home or looking to refresh an existing space, painting the walls can be one of the simplest ways to bring new style to your environment.
Although it may seem like a challenge initially for some, painting a room is an accessible and rewarding activity, especially if you know a few trade secrets.
Here are our top 5 tips for achieving the best results!
1. Take the time to prepare
Before applying the first coat of paint, it is essential to carefully inspect all surfaces for cracks, holes, dents, or other imperfections. Remove them with sandpaper and putty. Once completely dry, clean any residue with a damp cloth.
2. Invest in quality materials
The higher the quality, the better the final result. By using our kit and paints, you will achieve better coverage, avoiding wasting time and material.
3. Time for primer!
It's not always necessary, but it never hurts. However, if your surface is porous, such as new drywall or untreated wood, glossy, stained, or a very different color from the one you've chosen, primer becomes essential.
4. Start from the top
After laying down the protective cloth and taping the trim, use a brush to paint the corners of the ceiling and baseboards. Attach an extension pole to the roller handle to reach the highest points of the wall. Work from top to bottom, covering any splashes and drips before they dry.
5. Be generous
If your roller is sufficiently saturated with paint to ensure an even layer, you are on the right track. Never make the mistake of pressing the roller hard against the wall!
