What order to follow when painting a room?

[Nanne]

I have 2 rooms where the following works need to get done:

1) Fix ceiling & walls & skirting board cracks

2) Sand trims & skirting boards

3) Paint window frames 

4) Paint trims , skirting boards & window frames 

5) Paint ceiling 

6) Paint Walls 

7) Paint Floor 

😎 Wardrobe sliding door painting

Is this the correct order?

Hello @Nanne

Thank you for sharing your painting plans. This is precisely how the professionals would do it. Repair any damage on the wall and skirting first, then sanding and cleaning. The extensive large areas are always the last to be painted. 

Please keep us updated with your painting project, we look forward to seeing the freshly painted rooms.

Should I do another coat with Dulux 123 prep or just paint with Dulux Aqua enamel?

Hello @Nanne

Thank you very much for the update. I suggest doing one more coat of the Dulux 123 prep to make sure that there are no underlying paint shadows that will turn up when you put your top coat on. Plus it gives you a nice white uniform finish.

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
