Wood and Siding

Existing wood siding; To paint existing wood siding on a house, start by cleaning the surface with a pressure washer or a scrub brush and a cleaning solution. Allow it to dry completely before scraping and sanding any loose or rough areas. Apply a primer to the surface before applying the final coat of paint. Choose high-quality paint and use a brush or roller to apply the paint evenly. Apply a second coat if necessary and allow it to dry completely before removing any tape or coverings. New wood siding; To paint new wood siding on a house, the first step is to ensure that the wood is properly dried and seasoned before applying any paint. Next, the wood should be cleaned and sanded to create a smooth surface for the paint to adhere to. Primer should then be applied to seal the wood and provide a base for the paint. Once the primer has dried, the paint can be applied in at least two coats, with each coat allowed to dry fully before applying the next. It's important to choose high-quality paint and brushes for a professional-looking finish.
