Definitive guide to painting exterior walls

Step 1 - Removing loose paint before painting exterior walls

It is very likely that if the wall has been painted for some time, there are spots where the paint is loose and prone to peeling. You should remove with a spatula all the loose paint you see before proceeding to the next step.

If you don’t remove it, the new paint won’t set well and will peel off quickly.

Step 2 - Repairing cracks in your exterior facade

To repair cracks there are materials such as plaster or putty, but you have to make it clear to the seller that what you want is to cover an exterior crack.

You should never use interior putty to cover exterior cracks, as these do not resist humidity and external temperature changes, as well as the friction of the joints.

Step 3 - Make sure the wall is clean and dry.

Before applying the paint, so that it adheres well to the wall, you have to remove all traces of dust and dirt. To do this you can brush the wall with a damp brush, making sure it is well cleaned.

It is also probable, if paint has fallen, that the wall has fungus and black spots, you must remove them well and apply some fungicide product, because they can reappear in the newly painted wall.

Step 4 - When to paint the wall (weather conditions do matter)

This is a very important detail, because you have to paint in favorable weather conditions. Otherwise, you will see that because of the heat, the paint may crack or be washed away by the rain.

A favorable weather condition would be a non-hot day, with little sun, no wind and low humidity in the environment.

Step 5 - How to apply paint

So that you can work quickly and with good results, you must first paint the edges of the wall with the brush, leaving enough margin to avoid rubbing the edges with the roller.

Once the edges are painted, you have to paint the inside with a roller, a job that is already much easier than carefully skirting with the brush. Here you will work at a fast pace, like a good professional.

Step 6 - After painting

Once you have finished painting, it’s time to put away all the tools and relax.

To avoid wasting tools, which you may need later to touch up a spot, soak both the brush and the roller in solvent until the paint has come off them.
