BE PREPARED - GET YOUR WALLS READY
STEP 4
Plan: Work out the amount of paint you will need so you don’t run out. Try out our paint calculator at www.sandtex.ie. STEP 1
Stabilise: Once your walls are dry check the surface for any chalky areas and
seal the surface with Stabilising Solution.
Repair: Fill cracks Masonry Filler. Using a knife or spreader fill the crack and allow to dry. Sand smooth before painting. STEP 5
Tools: Make sure you have all the tools you need, ladder, brushes & rollers, a roller tray, gloves and a dust sheet to protect the ground. STEP 2
STEP 6
STEP 3
Final check: Check the weather forecast, your walls will need to be dry before you start and you’ll need to allow 3 - 4 days, assuming a team of two, for an average house. Move the car and protect the drive and you’re good to go.
Clean: Remove all dirt dust and loose material. Treat organic growth with Fungicidal Solution, clean off all the walls, a pressure washer will give best results.
Never cut corners, a little longer on prep saves in the long run
