Are you ready to give your walls a fresh coat of paint? Do you want to impress friends and family who will come over during the Holidays with newly renovated rooms? There are a few things you should know before getting started with painting your interior walls.
What You Need To Know About Painting Interior Walls
Unlike exterior walls, you can paint interior walls pretty much all year round. Before you get started, make sure you get all your supplies together. Get good roller sleeves and paint brushes. Paint brushes that lose bristles and sleeves that lose fiber while painting could ruin your paint job. Make sure to get a pan, an extension pole and a stepladder ready before getting started. Don’t forget a drop cloth to protect your floors.
Not sure what paint to get? Benjamin Moore offers a wide variety of quality paints including Aura® Interior, Regal® Select Interior, or ben® Interior. If you are not sure which paint to get, talk to the experts at Texas Paint.
Now it is time to prepare your walls. Take a closer look at your walls. If they need repairs, now is a good time to do it. Fill in holes and cracks. Make sure to sand the areas you have fixed. Washing your walls with warm water and a sponge is important. Next, apply some primer to your clean and dry walls. If you are not sure which type of primer is best for you, talk to our paint experts.
Paint along the ceiling line, corners, windows, doors, molding, outlets and switches first, and then start loading your roller. Paint each wall section rolling from the top down first, overlapping each row about 3-5 inches.
Let the paint dry and apply another coat of paint. For more information on how to avoid streaks, visit: https://www.benjaminmoore.com/en-us/interior-exterior-paints-stains/how-to-advice/interiors/painting-walls
