Choose the Right Paint

One of the most important aspects of painting your house is selecting the right paint. Consider factors such as the type of surface you are painting, the room’s function, and the desired finish. For example, if you are painting a bathroom, opt for moisture-resistant paint. 

Prepare the Surface

Preparing the surface before painting is crucial for achieving a smooth and professional-looking finish. Start by cleaning the walls to remove any dirt, grease, or dust. Fill any holes or cracks with a suitable filler and sand the surface to ensure it is even. Additionally, consider applying a primer to improve adhesion and enhance the paint’s durability.

Use Quality Tools and Equipment

High-quality tools and equipment can make a significant difference in your painting project. Quality brushes and rollers will allow for better paint application and create a more polished finish. At Tango Interiors, we provide expert advice on the best tools and equipment for your specific painting needs, ensuring a professional outcome.

Practice Proper Technique

To achieve the best results, it is essential to practice proper painting techniques. Start by cutting-in around the edges with a brush before using a roller for the larger surfaces. Paint in smooth, even strokes, and avoid overloading the brush or roller to prevent drips and streaks. Applying multiple thin coats is preferable to one thick coat, as it will result in a more even and durable finish.

We show professionalism by protecting Furniture and Floors

Protecting your furniture and floors during the painting process is crucial to avoid unwanted damage. Cover surfaces with drop cloths or plastic sheets to prevent paint splatters and spills. We remove any movable furniture from the room or keep them in the center, covered with protective materials.
