Why Experience Matters With Interior Painting

Work experience is important in every profession, and painting is no exception. Have you ever wondered why experience is so important with painting? In this article we’re going to explain it.

Paint

An experienced painter knows what paint to use for each and every job. Different paints and different brands perform differently, and an experienced painter is going to choose the right paint with the right finish, so that you end up with the perfect finish on your walls and ceiling.

Prep

The experienced painter has the tools and experience to know how to prep the surfaces. He or she will know if they need to be cleaned, how to fill in holes or imperfections, and what is needed for a perfect finish. Without the right prep work, your colours may not look right. You may not have the right number of coats of paint. You may not receive the primer that you sorely need to cover a previous dark colour. If your painter walks in and starts painting right away without preparing for the job at hand, then you risk a lot of problems down the line.

Tools

There are special tools for special jobs: sprayers for certain finishes, special brushes for different techniques, and tools to clean up any paint that went astray. An experienced painter comes with what he or she needs and knows how to use the tools the way they were intended.

People often think that painting is an easy DIY job, but it’s not. A professional painting job looks a whole lot different than a DIY job. The experienced painter will have perfect, even coverage without any wiggly lines, overspray, or flashing. And the experienced painter will do all this in a fraction of the time that you will spend on it yourself. Do it right the first time, and hire professionals.
