How to paint a window
Contrasting colors such as dark gray turn windows into "frames" for views and landscapes. The bright ones can completely change the mood of the space. Calm shades "collect" the interior.
A warm, but a little cloudy day is suitable for working with a window, it is better to start in the morning - after all, the sashes will have to be kept open until the paint is completely dry. It is better to remove the old layer with a scraper and coarse-grained sandpaper, remove the accessories or glue it with masking tape. To protect the glass, they can also be pasted over with newsprint and secured with tape. It is not scary if a little paint gets on the glass, it is easy to remove it with a special scraper.
First you need to paint over the horizontal slats, then the vertical ones, then go to the frames, work from top to bottom. Experts are advised to apply the paint along the grain of the wood, as it lays down in a smooth, even layer. The corners and joints should be painted over with point strokes, holding the brush perpendicular to the surface. The ends, window frame and window sill can only be painted after the window frame is completely dry. It is important to remove the masking tape and newsprint before the paint is completely dry - otherwise the fresh coat could be damaged.
How to paint a door
Not everyone is satisfied with standard interior doors, but a color or design solution can completely transform them, making them an accent.
Before painting, the doors are removed from their hinges, sanded, laid horizontally: this eliminates the occurrence of drips. With fittings, you should do the same as when working with windows. For the ends and recesses it is more convenient to use a brush, for wide surfaces - a roller.
