may be some projects you are keen to start on before the weather becomes too
hot. For those of you who are avid and skilled painters, we have a few tips that may
just save you some time when it comes to exterior painting.
1. Decide on the color well in advance by applying swatches
of paint to scrap wood, holding them up against the trim paint for comparison.
2. Make sure to scrape off all the loose paint of the older
coat. Older putty knives are the perfect tool for this exterior painting task.
By doing this, you ensure that the new coat will look uniform and smooth.
3. It is extremely important to prime the exterior of your
home before applying the new color. Many people skip this step in the interest
of saving time and money, but it really makes all the difference when it comes
to the final products.
4. A good Houston exterior painting job is always preceded
by time spent caulking gaps, unwanted knots and additional seams between wooden
siding pieces. Don’t start painting until the caulk is totally dry. Smooth it
down if necessary with a block of sand paper.
5. During this last step, complete your Houston exterior painting project by working on small areas at a time, making sure to pay close attention to edges and areas around the trim and roof line.
We hope these simple steps help make your exterior painting a
successful and fun experience!
