Heal Estate:The Oakvi/Ie Beaver, Wednesday, Mar. 9, 1994 â€" 20 O 0'" 0 Tools of the trade for painting success 3 reviously I wrote about choos- 15ing interior paint and the tools ‘ to apply it; this week, its on to a vital link in the chain of decoration: preparation. Here are the essentials â€" drop sheets, ladders, small table or saw horse, a lamp, drywall compound, spatulas, sandpaper, and masking tape. Drop sheets: Cotton is best whether it is an old sheet or specially pur- chased material (unbleached cotton by the yard or special drop sheets). Cotton has a manageability that surpasses plastic and it absorbs drops and small spills where plastic will let it sit there, making it easily tracked ROOM TO ROAM $204,900. 4 Bdrm. large eat- 0 . in kitchen with main floor . 0 . tam. room w/tireplace. . dble car garage, C/A, fully . fenced and more. 0.

Even if you are using a roller, you will probably need a ladder to cut in near the ceiling or to apply masking tape. Rollers with a wooden handle screwed in allow you to paint high on the walls and even on the ceiling without a ladder. HUGE HOME Walkout bsmt Backs onto gr./belt as well.

Small table or saw horse: Anything that will get the paint can off the floor within easy reach of the brush will pay dividends in time saved and in mess avoided. Think of a time study of your painting style and you will realize all the time and effort you will save by having the paint can at waist level when you are not on a ladder. Lamp: A lamp or any moveable light source that you can hold against the wall to reveal all the bumps and depressions that detract from the finâ€" ished job. Try it; you will be amazed at the clarity and the ease of spotting them before you come to them with the paint brush. REALTY CORP.

Drywall compound: It comes ready mixed in many sizes of containâ€" ers and it is inexpensive. Use a putty knife for small holes allowing some time for shrinkage as it dries and then top it up flush with the surface. Larger areas that need topping up should be done with the aid of a large 12â€"inch spatula for a professional finish. Sandpaper: Sandpaper on a sand- ing block to insure that only the pro- jections are sanded off. A blackboard eraser makes a wonderful sanding block because it is flat, easy to grip, and has no hard corners to dig in. Sand the whole surface area. It will give a better grip to the new paint; in fact, it is a must if you are painting over a gloss finish. Wash down the surface with water; add some TSP (trisodium phosphate) if it is dirty or greasy.
