2 more tips: 1. CLEAN any previously painted/finished surface BEFORE sanding. Otherwise you may be grinding dirt/grime into the old paint. 2. Hand sanding as in video is always good, but sanding sponges/pads are also good for lightly profiled mouldings- they can take the shape of the contours as they sand. Just be careful to not get too aggressive or burn-out can result as mentioned in the video.

@savageredbeard 2 жыл бұрын
This is a little late but there's nothing you can do but smooth out the area around the burn through as to make it even with the surrounding paint, then add a few extra coats to that area. We all do it from time to time and that about all you can do, unless you've cut into the wood too deep, then you'll need to put some wood putty in the area and sand it when it's dry to even it out.

Repainting inside my house, I initially used the popular chemical deglosser for trim. It took forever & I never could really see it take the "gloss off" which was its name. Using 220 grit is a million times quicker and you can tell easily when you are deglossed. The stff may be good for highly irregular surfaces but for trim like this 220 is way to go. Good video! Thanks
@Matasky2010
@Matasky2010 3 жыл бұрын
The whole advantage of using deglosser is that it eliminates the need for sanding. If used properly the deglosser should do it's job- taking off the sheen and letting new paint adhere to old.

Does not matter if oil or latex. It depends upon the condition of the paint. If the surface is really bad because of heavy brush marks or because there are many coats of paint over bad conditions. Then wet sand with 150 grit. If it’s in really good condition then use 220 grit. If it’s in perfect condition, you still have to sand the surface to “open up” The surface so that your new paint can “grab” The surface and hold on to it permanently. If the surface is near perfect then sand with 320 or 400 grit. Always wipe clean the sanding residue that is left over from wet sanding. Hope that helps

Some lazy animal painted the doors and frames so badly that they have paint runs, dirt balls stuck in paint and marks all over the surface. They painted OVER the trim and locks and everything as well. Just absolute scum. I'm thinking of smoothing the surface by wet sanding with finer grit sand paper instead of an entire repaint. Then I'm just going to touch up any areas I go through to the wood with sandpaper with some light paint and polish the doors with automotive polish. Let's see...
