Dos & Don'ts of Interior Painting

In this section we will cover some of the major mistakes I made and how to stay out of trouble. One of the first things I learned is that oil does not mix well with latexes. This May sound like a stupid mistake, but I made ​​it. And there are people on my crew who made ​​it too. Once this happens, the batch is destroyed. It will not interfere, and it will not dry. What we do with it? It is a difficult question. There are sites that are afraid to burn it. They are charged at the rate of burn color. And so it is now just a mess it's hard to say what burn rate would be if this mess gets you and gets applied to the wall. I do not want to think about it. Also, this is the reason why becomes clear that the label can take pictures and their uses.


Labeling can is a good idea, so finding a good place to store them. Not only to protect water-based paint from freezing, but for security reasons. Do not leave open cans of oil-based paint in the open field fabrication. Or raging used to clean oil paint. Rag with paint thinner to have to be removed from the house! They are known to start fires spontaneous combustion. The best way to avoid problems is to soak it in water, let dry out, then dispose of them.


Since we're on the topic of waste going to tell you about the do's and don'ts of getting a ride color except at the place burn. It is in most of the county out loud to put color in the regular trash if dry product. That's right, you have to dry the paint from the first. There are some products on the market now that it was five years go and we had to do those old-fashioned way. by painting them on something, then getting a ride from them. new product mix in the wet paint and interact with drying agents for paints to accelerate them. So far I've only seen this technology in latex paint, not oil-based ones. Along with them, they are still the old way. But there is one small solution that I used and you can decide for yourself-if you want to use it. What I did was buy some spill absorbing and blend wet paint oil base to it little by little and keep stirring it. To let air in to help the drying.


waste water from cleaning paint tools. I'm not going to recommend putting them down your drain because most of the EPA agents and county water services from this practice. If your act responsibly and use your head when dealing with these issues, then you will remain confident.


Let's talk about drying times for the moment. The main importance of the drying time. As I stated before you can cause a mess in our work cut out when trying to paint in different colors before the first color is completely dry. Another reason is a thing called a solvent entrapment. What does it mean that it is simply a vehicle in the first coat of paint is allowed to evaporate before being captured by a second coat. What does it mean that the first layer is stretched to failure. Taking a second coat with her​​. loss of connectivity with the surface of a great big mess of peeling, and loss of time and money. It is more seen on the outside painting projects. But it's never a good idea to rush the job. This applies to try to paint over the sealant used before they are too dry.


This issue is the mileage performance. As is to try to get more mileage out of paint and varnishes. During irrigation product is not in any way to save money. If you want to save money on paint, buy the good stuff. Adding too much water on the paint. It reduces everything to be trying to use such as hiding, washing and durably. What does it mean that we are putting more work on the same job. All the reasons we use it in the first place, not the cheap stuff.


So far we have not covered, let's do the cover. I like to wash something that looks suspects regardless of the fact that painting. Like Grease, Dirt, hair. These things do not take paint well. Here's yet to do. Do pay attention to the direction the sun when working. We need to do our painting in direct sunlight. a hot work in the sun, but the greater reason is it will set our colors too quickly and cause problems. It is very important when it comes to work on fine-cut joinery.
