Why Prep Is 80% of a Good Interior Paint Job

People judge a paint job by the color, but the result depends almost entirely on what happens before the paint comes out.

First, the room gets cleared and covered. Furniture moves to the center under plastic, floors get drop cloths, and outlet covers and switch plates come off.

Then the walls get repaired. Nail holes and dents are filled, cracks are taped or caulked, and patched spots are sanded flush. Gaps between trim and wall get a bead of caulk so the line looks sharp.

Stains, patches, and glossy surfaces get primer. Without it, patches show through as dull spots and old water stains bleed through new paint.

Only then come two coats of finish paint, with clean cut-in lines at the ceiling and trim. The last step is a walkthrough in good light to catch any thin spots.
