Step 1: Gather Your Supplies

Before you begin painting, make sure you have all the necessary supplies on hand:

  • High-quality paint in your desired colors (choose from Bright and Shine Painter’s wide range of premium paints)
  • Primer (if required)
  • Paintbrushes and rollers
  • Painter’s tape
  • Drop cloths or plastic sheets to protect floors and furniture
  • Paint trays and stirring sticks
  • Sandpaper (if needed for surface preparation)

Step 2: Prepare the Surface

Proper preparation is key to achieving a smooth and long-lasting finish. Follow these steps to prepare the surface for painting:

  • Clean the walls: Remove dust, dirt, and grease using a mild detergent solution and a sponge. Rinse with clean water and allow the walls to dry completely.
  • Patch and repair: Fill any holes, cracks, or imperfections with spackling compound or filler. Sand the patched areas smooth once dry.
  • Prime the surface (if necessary): Apply a coat of primer to bare or repaired areas to ensure better paint adhesion and uniform color.

Step 3: Protect Surrounding Areas

Before you start painting, take measures to protect floors, furniture, and fixtures:

  • Cover floors and furniture with drop cloths or plastic sheets to prevent paint splatters and spills.
  • Use painter’s tape to mask off areas such as windows, doors, trim, and baseboards for clean and sharp lines.

Step 4: Apply the Paint

Now it’s time to paint your interior walls! Follow these tips for a professional finish:

  • Start with cutting in: Use a high-quality paintbrush to cut in along edges, corners, and trim where rollers can’t reach.
  • Use a roller for larger areas: Use a paint roller to apply paint evenly to larger wall surfaces. Roll in overlapping W or M patterns for consistent coverage.
  • Work in sections: Divide the wall into manageable sections and complete one section at a time to maintain a wet edge and avoid visible seams.

Step 5: Allow for Drying Time

Once you’ve applied the paint, allow it to dry completely according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Avoid touching or placing objects against freshly painted walls until they are fully dry to prevent smudges or marks.

Step 6: Apply Additional Coats (if needed)

Depending on the desired color intensity and coverage, you may need to apply additional coats of paint. Allow each coat to dry thoroughly before applying the next one.

Step 7: Clean Up and Final Touches

After painting, clean up any paint spills or drips and remove painter’s tape carefully to reveal clean edges. Put away unused paint and brushes properly for future touch-ups.
