Post 60 of 93

As part of your property maintenance, there is the need of properly painting the interior walls that doesn’t limit merely to a brush applied with paint on the surface of the walls. Several steps are involved and the first to start with is the priming of the walls. This one is mandatory as it enables more adherence of the paint topcoat that will last longer. Before applying the paint you should make sure that the prime is completely dry.

Handling the paint will require first opening the box and stirring the paint, then a little bit of practice when maneuvering the brush in this way you can get a better grasp of what is all about. Once you are surer on your moves and handling the brush you can begin painting the interior walls of your property.

Another thing that needs to be done before applying the paint as part of the property maintenance, is the painting of the ceiling and the skirting board if there is one. In this way you can be sure that no white paint will be dropped on the walls once you have painted them in color.

For this you can as well proceed into “cutting in”, a method through which you can paint the top and bottom of the wall leaving the middle to be filled later after the ceiling and woodwork are finished.

The inside areas can be filled with the use of a brush or a roller, though the roller is known to bring the best finish being the quickest method to paint the interior part of the walls. A bit of more attention is required when doing the interior, this meaning that you need not press on the roller, but let it do the job for you.

In case you press too much there will be some ridges formed and there will be the need to re-roll the same portion and have the ridges smoothed out.

The paint type that you will decide to use is exclusively your option as many of them are available regardless if you go for emulsion, matt or gloss paint. Various shades are as well available and in this situation you should pick the one that complies with your property maintenance needs as well as your wishes.

In case the interior painting seems a difficult task for you inside the tasks that relate to property maintenance, then you should probably hire a professional willing to do this job for you. In this way the required job will be achieved in a professional manner at the same time you will have time to take care of other things that belong to property maintenance.
