(ARA) – Is your home’s exterior a bit worse for the wear after winter’s onslaught of snow, ice and wind? Or perhaps it just needs a little freshening up to welcome the new season. Either way, it pays to invest in tools that will help you do a professional job, and get it done quickly so you can enjoy the fruits of your labors.
Before you start the actual painting of your house, you’ll need to do a little prep work. If there are any rough or peeling patches on your exterior, they’ll have to be sanded down and smoothed. Repair any other damage you find as you inspect the house as well so that once you start painting, you won’t have to stop to address these spots.
Next, make sure you protect your outdoor furniture, your grill, and your plants from any stray paint. Anchor drop cloths make this job quick and easy. These innovative, circular drop clothes feature a drawstring design that means the cloth stays on the protected item. They’re great for indoor use, but you’ll really appreciate them outdoors if the wind starts blowing. Using the drop clothes eliminates the need to move all your patio or deck furniture, and also protects your landscaping.
You’ll also want to protect your windows from unwanted paint coverage. Taping these areas can be time consuming and awkward. Glass Mask provides an easy alternative. Simply use the bottle applicator to spread a thin film which acts as a protective barrier between the glass and paint. When you’re done painting, use the included blade to scrape off Glass Mask and any stray paint.
Now you’re ready to paint. Gone are the old-fashioned days of paint brushes and rollers. For a professional finish, and for making quick work of painting an entire house, nothing beats a power sprayer. The new Paint Crew by Wagner is the first piston pump sprayer that allows homeowners to paint like the pros on the budget of a do-it-yourselfer.
It is specifically designed to spray most architectural coatings and offers the same quality spray pattern as high-priced contractor units. The Paint Crew is crafted for the homeowner to be portable for easy movement around the job site and clean-up. The simple operation and advanced technology will provide years of trouble-free operation.
And think of all the ways you can use it. Once you’re done painting the house, you can move on to that peeling fence in the backyard or the deck that needs some sprucing up. It will make just about any home painting project a lot easier.
