    These are the steps for painting a room:
    Prepare Surfaces
    To get the best finish it’s crucial that you have properly prepared the surfaces that you plan to paint before you start painting. For more information on this watch our video ‘How to prepare walls and ceilings for painting’ here po.st/WIsvzZ
    Measure Area to Paint
    Before buying your paint make sure you measure your walls and ceiling, don’t worry about subtracting doors and windows as it’s always good to have a bit more than you think you need.
    Paint Ceiling Undercoat
    Always make sure to start with the ceiling. This is so that if any paint drips, it’s only dripping on to surfaces that are yet to be painted.
    Paint Wall Undercoat
    Begin by protecting fittings such as light switches, sockets and any woodwork that you’re not planning to paint with masking tape, leaving an overhang to protect it from drips as much as possible.
    Paint Woodwork Undercoat
    It’s worth doing the under coat on any wood work before you do the top coat on your walls. This is so you don’t need to be too precious about a perfectly neat edge where any wood work meets the wall.
    Paint Wall Topcoat
    Whilst you're waiting for your woodwork undercoat to dry you can paint the walls with their top coat. Paint entire walls in one go to avoid marks where the paint has dried at different times. For an even and professional finish give each wall two coats; making sure that the first coat is completely dry before moving on to the second.
    Paint Woodwork Topcoat
    It’s best to put two coats on woodwork for a longer lasting and more protective finish. We would recommend using a water based product as they are quick drying, don’t smell like solvent based paint and the white options don’t yellow.
