"I have to repaint my walls shortly. How can I ensure that I do it correctly? 1. Pick your paint The colour of your walls has a huge impact on the overall look and feel of a room, so it’s important to get it right. If you’re struggling to choose, the Dulux Visualizer app gives you an instant digital impression of your wall colour, so you can try out different shades before you pick up a paint brush. 2
2. Reach for the tape Cover wall sockets, window frames, coving, door hardware, and anything else that you don’t want to paint, with masking tape. Make sure you apply it in a neat, straight line so the edge of your paint turns out equally neat.
3. Cover Up It’s usually a good idea to remove all furniture from the room, but if you don’t have the space, cover it with drop cloths or plastic sheeting instead. Plastic carrier bags are a cheap and easy way to protect things like light fittings.
4. Dust down your walls To get an ultra-smooth finish, it’s essential that you dust down your walls before you start to paint. A quick once over with a dry cloth is usually all it takes. Take extra care in the top corners of the room where there might be cobwebs.
5. Get Painting You don’t normally need to use a primer on walls that have already been painted, so now ‘s the time to crack open your paint tin.
6. Peel off your tape When your paint is almost dry, carefully peel off your masking tape. If you wait until your paint is completely dry, you risk pulling off sections of paint with your tape.
7. Stand back and admire your handiwork That’s it! You should now be the owner of a set of smooth, perfectly even walls just waiting to form the backdrop to your brand new decorating scheme.
