In general, painting is not an easy task, whether you are painting the entire interior wall of your house or renovating a piece of furniture!

in Learning how to paint a building we talked about house painting, but here we focus on painting the walls.

Every professional painters in Sydney has different ways of working, but we reveal the tricks and secrets that skilled wall painters do not tell you to reduce common painting mistakes from now on:

In order for the wall painting or the device to be painted well, it must have a smooth surface. For this purpose, the work surface should be sanded and this should be done with a sanding wheel or sanding sheet. It is in this state that any scratches, scratches, cracks or extra damage are eliminated. To paint the wall, sand from floor to ceiling vertically and horizontally. Keep in mind that too much pressure on the sandpaper or wall can damage it. For wooden tools, use special sponges or sanding surfaces.

2- Use colored primer

Painters putty holes and cracks in the wall before painting the wall. But if you apply the paint directly to the wall after troweling, the putty on the wall absorbs the moisture in the paint and gives the wall an improper appearance. The points that result from this event are significantly different from the rest. To prevent this problem, professional painters use a color primer before the main wall paint. Instead of using a white primer, professionals often use a gray primer or other color that is close to the final coat. Colored primer works better to cover the wall covering than plain white primer, and eventually the wall covering will look better and the number of times the wall will be painted will be reduced. This step is good for colors such as red and orange, which require three or more series of paints on the wall without using a primer.

3-Press the adhesive tape with a spatula

There is nothing worse than going to the adhesive tape that you put on the baseboard after finishing the wall painting operation, and after removing the strip, you will see that the wooden baseboard is also stained with paint. In order for this not to happen, in wall painting, you should pay attention to some points when you want to apply the glue to the desired surface. After attaching the tape to the baseboard, pull a spatula over the tape and press until it sticks well.

Use blue paint glue so that the glue does not remain on the surface of the baseboard. Painter adhesive can be easily removed, but while painting the wall, it also protects the paint from returning to its lower surface.

4-Remove the brush traces with a special paint coating liquid

To remove the brush marks from the wall painting operation, use a paint coating with a paint softener and mix it (fluterol liquid) with the paint. This firstly slows down the drying process of the paint, and as a result, if you want to repaint the paint on some parts of the wall, you will not have a problem. Secondly, the paint coating does not leave the brush color while painting the wall. Wall painting professionals use paint softeners for wood surfaces, walls and doors. Add the required amount to the paint according to the factory instructions.

5-Scratch the border of the textured wall and ceiling

One of the problems with wall painting when the roof is textured is that it is almost impossible to create a smooth line without contact with the ceiling. For this problem, wall painting professionals use a simple method. They use a screwdriver to create scratches on the intersection of the roof and the wall. In this case, while painting the corner of the wall, additional paint enters the scratch and the ceiling texture is no longer colored.

6- Use tarpaulin to paint the wall

Professionals do not use cloth or sheets on the floor. Thin fabrics can not prevent paint from passing to the floor of the house. They do not use plastic either because the plastic does not absorb the paint and the surface always stays wet. Wall painting professionals use tarpaulin for the floor. Of course, if you do not paint the roof of your house, you do not need to cover the entire floor. All you have to do is place the tarpaulin cloth parallel to the wall and on the floor along the entire length of the room to protect the floor of your house well, it is also easy to collect.

7-Finish one wall and then move on to the next

Painting the corners of the wall may seem simple, and you prefer to paint the corners first and then go to the main part of the wall. But this is not the case! Professional painters look at each side of the room on a separate surface. In this case, after painting each wall, they use a roll on it and then go to the next wall. In this case, the brush trace can be better combined with the roll movements. After painting the wall and using a brush and paint on it, cover it with a damp tray or towel so that the air does not dry the brush and paint bucket.
