It can be intimidating to take on an interior painting project. The myriad of brushes, rollers, and paint types can be overwhelming to even the best DIY-ers. Our professionals have compiled a list of our top three interior painting tips. Following these tips will make the painting process easier and the final product better. Our professionals have painted thousands of home interiors across the Blue Springs area and perfected the art of interior painting. Here is what we have to share with you!

Prioritize What Needs to Be Done

When dealing with a painting project on a budget and shortened timeline, it’s going to be important to recognize what needs to be painted and what you want painted. For example, a splattered or damaged wall in the kitchen may need to be painted, while an outdated guest bath you’d like to have painted. Going into an estimate with this sort of list will give you the flexibility for work that can get more accomplished.

Don’t Let Your Paint Dry

Any air, even in a sealed can, can cause paint to dry out. To keep the paint for touch ups, you’ll need to fill it with something. Our pros suggest golf balls. Put as many as you can to fill the empty air space in the can. Then use plastic wrap to cover the opening before you put the lid on. Hammer it down tightly and store the can upside down.

Choose the Best Paint Type

Our first tip for getting the best house painting job is to choose the right paint. This includes a variety of aspects, including color, type, and accessories (such as primer). The wrong combination of paint materials can cause the finish to be sub-par.

The best professional paints can help you decide between solvent-based and water-based paint to start this process. You will also have the option between gloss, semi-gloss, satin, and flat finishes. It can be overwhelming at first, but the right paint company will know where to lead you.
