Metal, Wood and General Items
Doors, windows, skirtings, radiators etc. General items- Application of paints to these types of surfaces will usually be carried out by a brush.
- The paint should be applied using a good quality bristle or synthetic brush. The size selected should be suitable for the job at hand.
- Dip the brush into the paint up to half the length of the bristles. Remove any excessive by wiping the brush against the edge of the paint container.
- Start from the top of each area and in the first instance vertically apply the paint. Use diagonal and horizontal strokes to spread the paint coating over the surface. Lightly brush over using light, vertical strokes to remove any brush marks.
- Fully reload the brush and apply the next band of paint. Spread out evenly over the surface so that both bands blend in together and “feather” out the edges ready for applying the next band.
