If you’re planning to tidy up your home pre sale make sure you don’t paint in the heat of the day.

Modern acrylics are superb products but it is best you don’t expose them to heat or cold, so never paint when the air temperature is below 10 degrees or above 22 in the sun or 28 in the shade…it just dries too fast and could easily fracture later.

It’s all in the preparation though, so make sure you wash thoroughly before hand. Many like to use water blasters but these do not always remove all the material…hose down, rub with broom [plastic ferrules] which you dip into a bucket of water with Sugar Soap liquid, then hose off. Of course, if there are splits or cracks present then complete removal including sanding etc will be required prior to adding paint.
