Checklist and Practices we Use for Trim and Baseboard Paintings:
- Preparing the area:
– Our team remove furniture, cover flooring, and protect surrounding surfaces. Clean the trim and baseboards by dusting or wiping down.
- Surface preparation:
-At AW Technical Services we inspect for any damages (cracks, dents, peeling paint) and repair them using fillers or putty.Sand the surface lightly to smooth out imperfections and promote better paint adhesion.Wipe off the sanding dust with a damp cloth.
- Masking and protecting:
-We Use painter’s tape to protect adjoining surfaces like walls or flooring from accidental paint splatters.By Applying a drop cloth or plastic sheeting under the working area to catch any paint drips.
- Prime the trim/baseboards:
-Our workers apply primer that helps promote adhesion and provides a smooth surface for paint application. We Choose a primer that is suitable for your trim material (wood, MDF, etc.).
- application:
-We use high-quality brushes or small rollers designed for trim work.After that we apply paint evenly in straight strokes along the length of the trim/baseboards.Our workers paint systematically from one end to another, maintaining clean lines at corners and edges.
- Allow drying time:
– We follow manufacturer instructions for drying times between coats of paint if multiple coats are needed. We avoid touching or placing items against freshly painted surfaces until they are fully dry.
- Finishing touches:
– After drying our team removes painter’s tape carefully while the paint is still slightly wet to prevent peeling. Do a little touch up any areas that may require additional attention after removing the tape.
- Sandpaper or Sanding Blocks:
-We use sandpaper with a fine grit (around 120-200) or sanding blocks to lightly sand the surface before painting.This helps us to create a smooth surface by removing imperfections and promoting better paint adhesion.
- Filler/Putty:
– For repairing minor damages like cracks or dents in woodwork, we use wood filler or putty that matches the color of existing trim/baseboards.We apply according to product instructions and sand it down once dry until it’s flush with the surrounding surface.
