Painting Tips for Your New, New York Apartment
Unfortunately we don’t offer the option of painting in the various moving services we offer. But we would like to give you some tips anyway because we want the place where you live to be awesome.
Going to paint with the same color at another time? In order to save on rollers. Put your used roller in a plastic bag and put it in the freezer. Just microwave (not in the plastic bag) the roller for a few seconds, just to loosen up the paint on the roller and get rid of the ice. And the roller should be as good as new.
Reuse your paint tray. Just wrap the paint tray in a plastic bag. When done with painting, just throw out the plastic bag to reveal a clean paint tray.
Easily control how much paint is on your brush with a rubber band. Stretch a rubber band vertically over your open paint can. Wipe off excess paint on your brush by wiping it against the rubber band.
Chances are you can’t spray in your NYC apartment but if you must. Save one of our cardboard boxes from your move. Put the item in the box and spray it in there. This will make the process a lot less messy.
To help out with paint fumes mix a table spoon of vanilla extract in the paint. Stir the vanilla very well into the paint to prevent discoloration.
Paint doesn’t stick to dirt. So make sure your clean your walls first. Use a wet paper towel attached to a mop to help speed up the cleaning process.
No one keeps that many newspapers in the house anymore. Use Plastic wrap to cover objects.
Use petroleum jelly on small spaces you don’t want to cover with paint. Like nails or switches. Cover the area with jelly, paint than wipe off area with a paper towel. The jelly will prevent the paint from sticking.
If you need more painting containers wash out a used coffee container or cut out a plastic gallon jug. With the jug you can the top opening to place your brush in and if use a coffee container you are able to use the rubber band trick we mentioned earlier.
