Re: [a/s] Interior Paint
I have...and my best advise is to completely and absolute 'degrease' the
surfaces first. Lightly sand whereever it is very slick...
Then paint with a very good B.I.N. primer. (no need to sand twice)
Then use the top paint in your colour choice...but ONLY use an oil based
paint...do not use a latex...it's too easy to rub-off when wiping down.
It is really BEST NOT to USE A BRUSH!!! especially with all the curved
areas....you will NOT be able to hind the brush strokes. Better to
completely tape everything and drap everything else with drop cloths...and
get a professional sprayer (rent it...or do like I did and hire a prof.
painter to do it...just provide him with the paint of your choice)...an spray
the surfaces lightly twice to cover. Mine is absolutely gorgeous!!! Looks
like it came that way! And I can wash it till the cows come home!! Good
luck.........cc
