Clear the room, gather all your supplies, and lay out your drop cloth.

Scrape, off any loose paint, if needed,

Remove any nails from the wall and spackle any holes, or imperfections. Sand smooth.

Clean the walls and trim, if needed. Dust along the baseboards, windows, doorways, with a damp cloth.

Caulk along the trim if needed.

Tape off the room if you like to use painters tape.

Wait for your paint to paint to be completely dry before taping off again with the trim. Apply paint again and again with a gap to dry. Give it a touch in the last.

Use razor to cut the edge when it peels after dry.

Clean up, put everything in the room as it was earlier.

How do you get dried paint off of woodwork?

Use a heat-gun and a scraper. You can soften most paints with heat. Do it outside and try not to inhale the fumes. Or obtain a paint stripper from your hardware store and follow the directions given. After you have found out how horrible it is to remove paint you will start to think differently about the benefits of painting wood. You can also find some techniques here >>planswoodworking.info/


Should you paint the trim or the wall first?

If you're using rollers on the walls - paint the wall first. Rollers always emit a powder-fine spray of paint into the room. No matter how careful you are, some of it will end up on the trim. By painting your trim last, you cover up the little paint spots the roller made. On the other hand, if you're not using rollers, you may want to do the trim first. When you get all the slow, detail work out of the way first you'll feel as if you're flying right along when it's time to fill in the big, flat areas. Bottom line - there is disagreement even among veteran painters about whether to paint trim before or after painting walls. Hopefully these ideas will give you a way to choose.

How can I remove trim from a wall effectively?

To remove trim from a wall effectively, start by using a putty knife or a pry bar to gently loosen the trim from the wall. Work your way along the trim, applying pressure as needed to separate it from the wall. Be careful not to damage the wall or the trim as you work. Once the trim is loosened, you can carefully pull it away from the wall. Fill any nail holes left behind with spackling compound and sand the area smooth before painting or refinishing the wall.

What should I expect to pay my local painting contractor?

The rate in one area will vary significantly in another area. Painting is usually done on a fee-for-service rate rather than by the hour. The cost will depend on the extent of the work, whether it is interior or exterior painting, the amount of prep time and repair involved, trim work, height of ceilings and walls, etc. Get two or three estimates and talk to friends about what they've paid in the past.
