1.Plan your wooden project: You need to decide which paint technique you want to use and what materials and tools are needed. These are chemicals and require special care. It’s best to complete a painting job (priming, painting, and sealing) as a single process. If that’s not possible, it’s not advisable to delay more than a week between priming and painting.

2.Clean the wood: Wood must be clean before primer can be applied and before applying primer, repair any damage. You can use painter’s tape to protect areas you don’t want to be painted.

3.Sand the wood:It’s important to sand between steps to remove unwanted particles. For the best results, each coat should be followed by sanding with fine sandpaper.

4.Prime the wood:Primer helps to hide stains, knots, smoke damage and more. Check best wood primers so that you can choose the right one for you. One or two coats of primer are sufficient. Make sure the primer dries completely before painting.

5.Paint the wood: Wood painting Depends on the material being painted and the tools used. If you decide to use a brush, purchase a good quality brush, or it will shed bristles.

Another tool that can be used to apply paint is a roller.Smaller rollers are available for use when painting things like furniture. Spray painting is an alternative to using a brush or roller.

6.Seal the wood: The proper sealant will enhance the paint and make it look like a professional job so it’s important to choose one of the best wood sealers on the market.

7.Finish the wood: Topcoat is some kind of final covering that protects your wood. You may skip this step if your wood will not be undergoing some considerable exposures. Remove all painters tape and gather drop clothes, making sure any spills or splatters are dry before you move them. Allow 72 hours for it to dry before using; otherwise, it can get sticky.
