DIY Interior Painting Tips

March 7, 2019 By Maria Leave a Comment

Painting is cost-effective and simple but it can make the greatest impact especially if you are able to do it correctly. There are a few tips to make sure you start off the right way. Don’t buy in large quantities at first unless you are sure of the color. Try painting with a quart first to make sure you really like the color in the room at different times of the day. Before painting clean your walls with water and soap. It will help the paint stick properly. Have your color mixer mix all paint on the same day to ensure the colors remain consistent through the room. Also, be sure to use the right roller for the surface. Smooth surfaces like wood can be painted with a 3/8-inch nap. Heavier textures will require a larger nap and save time. Finally, prime your walls. It will make painting easier with a seamless experience.

Key Takeaways:

    • For an impactful, but cost-effective way to customize and freshen the look of your home, go for painting.
    • To ensure proper adherence, wash your walls with soap and water before beginning the paint job.
    • You may want to buy a quart of the potential paint color and try it on a small spot in the room before you commit to a color you may decide you don’t like.

“Interior design matters as it can create the mood of your entire home. Whether or not you are planning to do it on your own, you need to make sure that you do it correctly.”
