Tips for How to Paint Trim

Trim Paint with Perfection.

Painting is one of the easiest and cheapest ways to transform any living space into something new and exciting. However, for some reason many people shy away from painting. A co-worker of mine once told me that he and his wife tried to paint their newborn’s bedroom. When I asked how it went, he grimaced before answering—it didn’t go so well. In fact, he went on to explain that it was a complete disaster.

There is no great mystery to painting. Like everything in life, we get better at it with practice, but I believe the most important factor in having a successful painting experience is to paint like a neat-freak.

Many paint jobs are unsuccessful because of accidental spills, runs and trying to work with too much paint. A small accident can quickly turn into a big mess. Those few drops of paint on the floor invariably get tracked all over the room and end up getting on the carpet. Brushes that are overloaded with paint can transfer that excess paint onto the hands and clothes of the painter who quickly contaminates everything in his immediate vicinity. Short, choppy strokes with a paint brush cause specs of paint to be broadcast onto other things that are not supposed to be painted.

My family and I recently tackled the job of painting the trim work in our foyer and on our home’s main staircase. It had been stained a dark Jacobean brown and then had a heavy coat of polyurethane applied over it. We decided to use a semi-gloss, white, latex paint in an effort to brighten up an otherwise very dark foyer.

Our plan was to paint the baseboards, door casing, doors and transoms white along with the stair risers, the spindles on the handrail and the paneled wall directly under the staircase. We decided to leave the handrail, treads and newel posts in the Jacobean finish. (To the lovers of fine wood out there, please don’t be outraged. Rest assured that the items that we painted were pine, and not oak or some other exotic hardwood.)

So, to have a positive painting experience it was important to follow a few simple steps. The first step was to clear the work area by completely removing the furnishings from the room. However, if the room is large enough, this can be accomplished by pushing everything to the center of the room. It is much easier to paint a room when it is empty instead of having to work around furniture and decoration. This also eliminates the possibility of getting paint on these items.

移动大型家具的最佳方式是带有DOWERIES。可以在废弃的木材中几乎没有任何东西,你可能已经拥有了一套玩家。只需采取几件左侧胶合板,切割两部分,长度为10英寸宽度。我曾经制作了一套36英寸宽,而且到了我的懊恼,我发现它不会经历大多数门口。这就是为什么最大长度为29英寸是优选的。用1倍的木材框架外侧周边。这使得无论是在运动中都会从移动或滑动移动台上。将旋转脚轮连接在所有四个角落下,以完成可玩家的建设。

准备

After removing all the furniture from the room, the next step was to give the work area a good cleaning. Start from the top and work down. Run something like a Swifter over the walls and then hand wipe the trim work with a clean rag. A tack cloth works great if you have one. The final step was to vacuum the floor, being sure to get inside all of the cracks at the intersection of the floor and baseboards with the vacuum cleaner’s wand.

用滴布或塑料覆盖地板,跟进清洁。帆布掉筒的工作比塑料更好,因为它不湿。如果使用塑料,请尝试购买它

厚度为3密耳的辊。我发现厚度小于3密耳的厚度太轻,并将与您所采取的每一步都卷起来。厚度大于3密耳是不必要的矫枉过正,并且太僵硬,无法舒适地使用。

As with the cleaning, it is usually best to start at the top and work down. As a general rule, it is best to paint the ceiling and crown moulding before tackling the walls and baseboards. Personally, I prefer to paint the trim work first because it is easier to cut-in along a wall than it is to follow the narrow edge provided by trim work.

Before applying any paint to the trim work in my foyer, I gave everything a light sanding with a 220-grit sandpaper to rough up the polyurethane that had been previously applied. If this is not done, the new primer and paint will not grab the surface well enough to bond to it. In some cases it will even cause the new paint to smear instead of going on smoothly.

不要忘记我的整洁怪胎。打磨一切后,用湿润(不湿)抹布擦拭墙壁并装饰工作,经常冲洗,然后在地板上运行真空吸尘器。务必特别注意沿地板边缘和楼梯的裂缝和裂缝。

Prime

It is usually a good idea to prime your work surface before applying the finish coat. Many paint manufacturers advertise one coat coverage, but in actuality this is extremely rare. Typically, two coats are required, and if a primer is used it will help to cover any stains that may exist. A primer is an absolute necessity when painting over raw wood ora stained surface. Priming your work area also has the added advantage of providing you with an intimate acquaintance with the surfaces that you will be painting. This allows you to discover or detect potential problems in the priming stage that can be avoided when the finish coats are being applied.

在这个项目上,我使用了kilz 2品牌底漆,我用少量黑色表示。Kliz 2是白色的,并且在添加一点黑色后,它变成了灰色的战舰。这样做的目的是通过饰面外套保持水位和其他污渍。像绘画一辆汽车一样,金宝搏app官网战舰灰色或底漆灰色使得通过成品流出的变色更难。由于我在一个非常深的棕色金宝搏app官网污渍上画画,所以使用底漆的底漆允许我使用比我使用白色底漆的较少的油漆涂料。

Paint

随着我身后的打磨,一切都搞砸了,所剩下的一切都是涂上饰面颜色。取决于涂料,这可能需要一到三层涂层以完成覆盖。涂漆时,通常最好使用两种更薄的外套而不是尝试涂上一件厚厚的涂层。厚厚的涂料涂层更有可能不必要地运行或填补观赏细节。

修剪工作总是用刷子涂上刷子。油漆刷各有各种形状,尺寸和价格范围。我避免了真正廉价的刷子和高端刷子。我的哲学是坚持使用中间的画笔,为每辆新工作购买新的包。这似乎有点浪费,但它不太用来磨损油漆刷。刷毛通常在最小的使用量之后略微开始略微加强或展开。试图用僵硬的刷子涂漆,或者是作业的错误尺寸是新胚胎画家的常见问题。

I prefer a 3-in.brush with straight bristles and use it almost exclusively for interior work. My wife, on the other hand, prefers a 2-in. brush that has the bristles cut at an angle. For tedious jobs I will alternate between a new, 1-in. brush and an artist’s brush that has a flat, wide tip and not the traditional teardrop shape.

一半穿过项目中的刷子是个好主意,或者如果它被涂料过度加载。任何绘画金宝搏app官网经历都会使用清洁的刷子更好,这些刷子没有拿着一堆过量的油漆。在炎热的日子里,通常需要更频繁地冲洗刷子,因此油漆不会干燥并加强刷毛。使用乳胶涂料时,请确保在任何休息期间或在吃午餐时将刷子放入杯子或桶水中。如果您的绘画会在金宝搏app官网第二天持续下去,请彻底冲洗刷子,然后在第二天将它们留在水中。这有助于确保他们不会加强。

The best technique for applying paint is long, slow strokes. Never dunk more than half the length of the bristles into the paint. The deeper it is submerged into the paint, the faster that paint gets into the base of the brush where it will dry, hardening the bristles. It is also just messier.

如果您需要沿着边缘或以其他方式剪切某些东西,则蓝色画家的磁带很方便。我个人不要再使用它,因为我稳定的手,并且比我要记住更多的练习绘画。金宝搏app官网对于那些没有稳定手的人,我强烈推荐使用画家的磁带,因为它将通过消除触摸工作来节省大量时间。切割的另一种选择是画家的盾牌。它们适用于较大的物品,但不要试图在任何繁琐或您正在处理的表面上使用一个繁琐的东西并不完全级别。油漆屏蔽很方便,但它们并不是无可救药。

完成我的项目仍然是scrape the paint off the panes of glass on three French doors. I like to use a 4-in. wide wallpaper scraper for this type of work.

Be sure to always use a new blade. A dull blade will do the job, but it will take a lot more effort and time than a razor-sharp one.

By taking just a few precautionary steps it is very easy to have a successful, and I dare say, pleasurable painting experience. A new coat of paint can simply freshen up a room or it can transform a room into something totally new. There is no other more cost-effective home improvement technique for the do-in-yourselfer. The cost of paint and brushes are minimal, but the impact is monumental.
