Hi all
After 8 years the wife finally can't take any more of the custard yellow
colour of our front room so I've been given my orders to do something about
it. *My plan of attack is to
Fill any cracks
Sand down filler, woodwork etc
Wash down all over
Emulsion ceiling
Emulsion walls
Gloss woodwork
But before I start I do have a couple of questions
1. Is the above the correct order to do things in
filler doesnt need sanding if you fill it smooth to begin with.
Washing is optional.
2. Any recomendations on brand of paint to use. Thinking of the white for
the ceiling here as the wall paint will be somewhat dependent on what SWMBO
picks colourwise
Dulux, Leyland.
3. Does everyone still use rollers or are paint pads the way to do it
nowdays
Cheers
Jim
Rollers cover everything with paint mist. A 5" brush works well
enough.
