Painting of a shed, how should I do?
I will be painting a shed, I wondered if there was anything particular I should know before do so. What is already painted, but needs new paint. Should I sand the whole thing first? Should I put a primer coat on? How many coats of paint should I use? And I should imagine a cube in each gallon of paint covers approximately 250-300 square feet?
Sanding? Each piece is going to be painted should sanding or scraping. Paint scrapers are found in hardware stores in the paint department. primer? Yes Coats? One of them is adequate if you use a paint high quality, apply a layer of suitable thickness, use a primer is satisfied with the look of it after it dries. Coverage? Whatever says can. Painting protects surfaces and improves the appearance of what your painting. Use a good quality paint and good brushes. Purdy arguably are the best, and adequate cleaning and storage that will last many, many years. Good luck.
