How to Make Your New Paint Last
Posted on March 30, 2021
If you have recently invested in a professional painting service or are about to schedule one, you are probably wondering how you can make it continue to look like new. Here at CertaPro Painters®️ of Aurora, we value providing our clients with the best information to keep their Aurora, CO home or business looking its best. Below are a few ways that you can make the most out of your recent painting service.
Use High-Quality Paint
The first way to ensure that your paint lasts it to check what type of paint your contractor will be using during your project. Our team only uses professional-grade paint from reputable brands like Benjamin Moore and Sherwin-Williams. When your painter uses high-quality paint you don’t have to worry about some of the issues that often occur when corners are cut on paint quality.
Work With Experienced Painters
Another way that you can get the most out of your painting service is to work with experienced contractors. If your painting contractor has local experience and years of training, they will know all of the proper paint prep and priming techniques. This is very beneficial to the outcome of your project and will guarantee that your fresh coat of paint goes on smoothly.
Should My Painter use Multiple Coats of Paint?
Typically your painter will use multiple coats of paint to cover and protect the area that has been painted. However, this is not always the case. It really depends on the color that is being covered and the new brand of paint when it comes to how many coats your painter may need to apply. It will also depend on the sheen of your chosen paint color as well as how your painter plans to apply it. Each of these factors will contribute to the amount of coats that your home will need during your individual service. This is why it is so important to work with a professional.
Invest in Power Washing Services
In order to protect your paint from aging too soon, power washing is a great way to maintain your property. A professional power washing service can blast away hard to remove dirt and other bacteria from your home. The result of this service is an instant update and can boost the curb appeal of your home. It can also extend the life of your new paint.
