Preparing the Area for Your Project
Proper surface prep is the first step in ensuring a paint job will last for many years and protecting
the surrounding areas guarantees a professional looking job. Always follow the paint manufacturer's
recommendations for best results before starting any painting project.

When preparing for a painting project, be sure
the weather will permit proper application
and paint adherence. Ideal conditions include
temperature above 45º and below 85º, humidity
less than 50%, and if painting outside, little to
no wind to minimize drift. Also make sure no
inclement weather is in the near future.

To avoid paint or stain overspray damage,
assess your area. Use canvas or poly drop
cloths to cover and protect surfaces like floors,
decking shrubs or plants, grills lawn furniture,
cars, boats and mailboxes. Make sure the drop
cloth extends at least five feet past the surface
you are painting or staining.
