So i am glad to hear that you can spray paint it without sanding it first. Scrape over it with a scraper to make sure it stays put. My materials came in right at 106 2 new brushes and paint contractor paper.
Be sure to vacuum the floor well after screening then finish up by tacking the floor with a damp cloth. If you think you can paint floors with regular wall paint you re sadly mistaken. I have had it over a month and it is still sitting in the garage so i decided to do some research to find out if i could just spray paint it with out doing any sanding. Let dry according to the label recommendations between coats and prior to top coating.
Although if you ve painted stairs you re already a step ahead first consider your supplies. 106 for a brand new floor. No applicator to fill in the low portions of the grain while taking a bit off the top. I am going out this weekend and buy some spray paint.
For layering paint the general rule of paint is fat over lean. In fact failures resulting from over brushing or over working paints are common byproducts of attempting to make a coating soak in. Back brushing or brushing will not necessarily cause the coating to soak in more. The main problem with spraying your finishes is the lack of leveling.
Houses are never sprayed so why should you spray my house contrary to popular belief houses are sprayed all the time. Well it took 18 hours start to finish includes prep paint clean drying time all of it. And since this is my last time painting my kitchen cabinets for many years they deserve the nicest sprayed finish i can give them. I am not really a do it yourself kind of person.
Spray or brush on one or more coats of primer in even strokes to achieve the desired coverage. Lean paints are water based and fats are oil based. Just before you paint the floor it s wise to test paint adhesion by applying a small amount to a non conspicuous part of the floor and letting it dry overnight.
