Painting questions
first,
when cleaning the walls before priming, what do you use?
second,
what do you paint first, trim and mouldings or walls?
TIA

Re: Painting questions
Our painter sanded the walls before priming. When he painted he did the ceilings first, then walls (he was able to cut it by hand but I would have needed to tape off the ceiling) and then the trim.
HTH!

Re: Painting questions
I can't remember the name of it but it was a degreaser that we used to clean the walls first.
We primed the walls.
Painted ceiling, then walls then trims/doors.

Re: Painting questions
ceiling first than - and i learned this the hard way
put your primer on the walls, then put your first coat of paint
paint the first coat of moulding then put your second coat of paint on the walls..
then your trim..
Good luck!
