DECORATING ADVICE

What goes into beautifully finished woodwork?

Good woodwork finishing depends on the existing coating, substrate condition and the preparation between coats.

Check the existing finish

Gloss, satin and water-based systems may have different preparation and adhesion requirements.

Take time over the details

Nail holes, joints, sharp edges and old brush marks should be assessed and treated appropriately.

Choose a suitable system

Primer, undercoat and topcoat need to work together. Drying and recoat times matter as much as application.

Need a hand with your project?

Every property and surface is different. A site-specific assessment helps determine what preparation and finish will work best.
