I'm about to begin the prep for painting the exterior trim (soffets, lookouts, facia etc). I'm on the central coast of California - mild and sunny almost all year... not much rain. Please check my steps and comment/correct and add at will!
- Pressure wash the grunge off.
- Prep cracks with spackle
- Deep/wide cracks get caulking
- Sand if required
- Paint my arse off!
I am planning on using a semigloss latex (rolling and brushing because I don't have access to sprayer (exterior latex of course) and haven't decided on a brand. I want to use a good quality paint and am soliciting for quality brands that you've liked working with.
Thanks,
DJay
