I just use 100 grit to 120 grit fine sandpaper or 60 if it's really rough such as a lump of filler then switch to fine finish sandpaper then using a damp cloth wipe all areas of walls especially where you have sanded so it will remove dust dirt better to paint onto a clean surface than dirty
I've stripped textured wallpaper to reveal a heavily pitted stone-like surface. What are the necessary steps to take before painting? Should I plaster it first?
@@Mia-zt1jn We ended up applying a skim coat before painting. It's like plaster. You'll need to prime the wall with a PVA primer before applying the skim coat and then prime again before painting. This will give you a smooth surface which will accept the paint well
Hi, the sugar soap is used to prepare your walls for painting. This will remove any dust, grease, crayon or sticky hand prints, which will help give you a professional finish. I hope this helps 😊
Videos are always so clear and useful! Thanks!
