DIY Renovation Painting - Dezine Tip of the Day
Renovating painting is more difficult than starting from scratch. The surface you have to work with is not perfect, so surface preparation is vital, and can make or break a paint job. Ensure you fill any holes and take off any old flaky paint, sand back to form a smooth finish, then clean it down making sure there is no fine dust from the sanding left. Take the time in the preparation because it is difficult to go back at the end and try and fix things. The "she'll be right, the paint will fill in the holes" theory is totally incorrect!
Always check the surface before starting to paint with a light to see if there are any blemishes.
