Exterior Paint Prep
Posted: Sun Jun 10, 2018 12:07 pm
Hi,
What do you guys use to clean the exterior of your place before painting, TSP?
Some of the paint is chalky.
My plan:
Replace rusted siding screws pull screw, (hit area with Scotch Brite pad, replace screw - thinking of using *8X1" SS to ensure a bite in the wood)
Spray TSP/Simple Green solution solution with a garden sprayer
Scrub with brush on an extension pole and spray/rinse with a cheap, Kracher 1800 PSI electric pressure washer I have (has a dispenser hose so I could add more solution)
Rinse with the water hose
I don't want to paint the place twice so I plan to use some type of paint with primer in it.
What do you think?
TIA
