6 things to consider for a successful painting project
Do you want to paint ( or repaint ) a room , staircase or piece of furniture ? Here are six things to remember to ensure your painting project is successful .
1 . Choose high-quality products . For the best results , invest in high-quality products . For example , spend the extra money on good paint , brushes and rollers .
2 . Select the right color and finish . Compare several samples to select a paint color you love . Make sure to choose the right finish for your desired look .
3 . Think about maintenance . Kitchens , bathrooms and entryways are more likely to collect dirt and dust . Therefore , choose a finish that ’ s easy to clean and can withstand heavy traffic .
4 . Consider the surface type . When choosing the right paint for your project , it ’ s essential to consider the surface type . For instance , concrete , wood and metal require different types of paint and surface preparation .
5 . Evaluate your experience level . If you ’ ve done several painting projects in the past , you may have enough experience to take on the task yourself . If not , call a professional for beautiful , smudge-free results .
6 . Buy enough paint . Depending on your project , you may need to apply a primer and account for one , two or even three coats of paint . Ensure you buy the correct amount of paint , especially if it ’ s a custom blend .
