Introduction

Take into account the secret of a successful and attractive paint installation project is in great part in the planning of the work.

The paint by itself does not hide cracks or other defects in the wall. It is necessary to know the use and the function of each product according to its protection and decoration requests.

Investing time in preparing the bedroom, dining room or place to paint is important to assure a work of excellent quality that you for sure are going to enjoy and look good for several years up to the following decoration project.

	Preparing the place for the installation of the paint requires three practical steps:
	1	Remove the things that can be removed (chairs, beds, tables, etc.).
	2	Cover the things that you cannot move (windows, energy switches, etc.).
	3	Make completely sure that all surfaces (walls, ceilings, etc.) are clean (free of grease, dust, oxidation, mold, etc.) dry, free of particles, paint in bad conditions or with imperfections (cracks, hollow, scratches, etc.). To solve these problems, please consult our section Products, Solving Problems, Frequent Ask Questions or ask for specialized information in the section Professional Service.

Caution:

When you work with energy sources, switches and lights, make sure to turn off the power source, interrupting the electric flow of these lines of energy.

Common mistake:

do not hurry… some products require of a minimum time of dried and hardened. Please read carefully the instructions in the labels related with preparation and application of the products. For additional information, please go to the sections Products, Frequent Questions or ask directly for specialized information in the section Professional Service.

tip 1	the application of products that require sanding generates particles of dust. Close doors or windows in order to prevent the expansion of the dust to other areas of the house. Do not forget to use personal protection equipment like a mask to cover your nose and mouth.
tip 2	a new coating or paint is as good as the surface on which it is applied. Make sure to scrape or sand the old, loose or flaking paint or coating. Invest time in checking carefully the surface to paint and carry out the pertinent repairs.
