Priming
What does a primer do?
A primer helps the new coat go on easier, look better and
last longer. It ensures a more uniform look.
As
a general rule, any previously unpainted or unstained surface
should be primed. Also, if the surface is very porous, or is uneven
in porosity, a primer is recommended. You may even want to use
a primer over a sound panted surface to ensure better adhesion
and uniformity of the new coat.

5. Painting
When doing exterior or interior painting, one of the most important
decisions is the quality of paint to be used. According to the
Paint Quality Institute, a leading authority on paint performance,
TOP QUALITY paints are designed to produce the best-looking and
longest-lasting results. And even though quality paints may cost
a little more, they can last more than twice as long as ordinary
paints — so they are really more economical in the long
run. Specific benefits
of using top quality paints, compared with using an “economy”
paint.
