When I took up painting and decorating for a living I began to discover just how much I didn’t know about the products, tips and techniques which would help me attain a finish that looked the same as if it was done by a pro.
I searched the web, read books and trade publications, and watched professional tradespeople, trying to find ways of improving my ability to get that expert looking finish. While I found a lot of useful stuff, I couldn’t find all that I was searching for in one place and that is why I decided to create this site.
The difference between an average finish and a finish you can be truly proud of is enormous. Achieving it doesn’t take a huge amount of skill – it just takes a little care, some knowledge, some advice - and patience. If you want a finished look you can be proud of, this site will help you achieve it!
Everything in here is either a project I’ve done or a problem I’ve encountered. Almost all the photos were taken by me as I went along. Nothing is “staged”.
So…
… this is the place to go for advice, step-by-step guidance and help!
Enjoy your painting!
