If you have just built a new home or renovated your current home, you will most likely need paint over drywall with your desired color. One of the most important things that you need to do is prepare the drywall to be painted. Ensure that all the drywall joints have been properly painted and sanded, and look for any screw indentations that need to be filled in. Ensure that the wall has been properly sanded as well, to ensure that the paint goes onto a smooth surface.
When painting over existing paint, often primer is not always used, but when painting over new drywall, primer is a must. It may seem like more work, but if you want the room to look good in the end, you must always use primer when painting drywall. Once the room is primed, take a look around the room to look for any bumps or irregularities in the wall. If you don’t deal with these now, you will see them through the paint once finished and you certainly won’t be happy. Once you have primed, it’s time to add the paint. Depending on the color, you may need 2 coats of paint. And, using a Graco paint sprayer can make the project faster and much simpler.
Overall, painting drywall is quite easy if you take the proper steps in your preparations.
