       Stripping paint

........................................................................................................

A new coat of paint can transform a room, house or an office. A sound paint film, even if it is several layers thick - can be a perfectly suitable base for repainting. A good rub down by our Painters and Decorators London - using medium coarse glass paper - sandpaper and the surface is keyed ready for the first coat of paint.

A heavy build-up of paint on the closing edges of windows and doors can result in sticking and adding another coat of paint on top of the old layers will only accentuate the problem. There is no need to remove the old paint from the whole surface ; trimming away from the edges is sufficient.

If the paint is peeling , flaking, pitted , badly chipped - the only way our London Painters can achieve a satisfactory and long lasting surface is to strip back to bare wood ready for filling and making smooth before starting to repaint.

There are three ways for of stripping paint :

By hand - mechanical

Sanding

By applying chemicals or heat
