I want to paint some interior doors and skirting boards. They were last painted about 15 years ago and are doors to a bathroom and to an airing cupboard. Apart from looking jaded the painted surface is not damaged.
I'll probably use one coat of oil-based undercoat and one coat of non-drip gloss topcoat.
I don't want to go for an award winning job! But at the same time I don't want to cut corners unwisely.
QUESTION 1: For preparation can I just sand these down with a fine glasspaper? Or do I need to also use sugar soap? If so then would the sugar soap be applied before or after the glasspapering?
QUESTION 2: Is it worth using any special bathroom paint? The ordinary gloss paint used before is not mould stained or anything like that but it would be nice if the whiteness could be retained for as long as possible.
