Step-by-Step Guide to Painting with The One Paint
Ready to give your home a fresh new look? Follow these simple steps to transform your surface with Rainbow’s One Paint:
Preparation:
- Clean the Surface: Start by thoroughly cleaning the surface to remove any dirt, dust, or grease. Use a mild detergent and water, then let the surface dry completely.
- Sand the Surface: Not always necessary on untreated or pourus surfaces like wooden fencing… however if the surface is waxed, varnished or previously painted, lightly sanding will allow the paint to adhere without steaking and peeling.
NOTE: Use our specially formulated UPVC paint on plastic surfaces. - Tape Off Areas: Protect areas you don’t want to paint, like handles and windows, with painter’s tape.
Applying the Paint:
- Stir the Paint: Give the paint a good stir to ensure it’s well-mixed.
- Start Painting: Using a high-quality brush or roller, apply the paint in smooth, even strokes. Begin with the edges and panels, then move to the larger flat areas.
- Allow to Dry: Let the first coat dry completely before deciding if a second coat is necessary. With Rainbow’s One Paint, one coat is often enough, but a second coat can enhance the finish.
Finishing Touches:
- Update Hardware: Consider updating door handles, knobs, and other hardware to complement your freshly painted finish.
- Add Decorative Elements: A new welcome mat, a stylish wreath, or some potted plants can further enhance your entryway and garage.
And there you have it—a quick and easy mini-makeover that significantly boosts your home’s curb appeal!
