Sometimes it takes a simple paint to offer a second youth to his moldings, plinths, bases and other woodwork. Yes, but how do you go about it so that the result is up to your expectations? We explain everything to you!

You like wood, and this is reflected in the choice of your home. Ceiling moldings, plinths, pictures and bases, chambronles and even why not paneling and large shelves embedded in the wall… You live surrounded by this living material and you love it. Now it is time to offer these woodwork a more than deserved makeover.

The steps

  1. Protect The room in which you will paint the woodwork by installing a plastic tarpaulin on the floor and masking the walls and ceilings that you do not want to repaint using an adhesive tape.
  2. Prepare The wood that you are going to paint by filling holes and other cracks with wooden dough, and by cleaning it if it is stained with a household detergent.
  3. Remove The old layer of paint possibly present by scraping it delicately or by stripping it if it is difficult to remove.
  4. Pontez All the surfaces to be painted with a strip of fine sandpaper that you can fold to reach the difficulties that are difficult to access, then spend a damp cloth to get rid of dust residues.
  5. Apply A layer of primer if the wood is naked, to fill its pores and protect it.
  6. Use A 25 mm brush for moldings and branches, and a buffer suitable for plinths, bases and paneling. A round brush will also be useful for painting possible ornaments, and a roller can be used on a large surface like a wall in paneling for example.
  7. Choose A paint specially adapted for wood, with water for easy cleaning, oil for greater sustainability. Know that a lacquered painting will bring a brilliant finish to the chambranles and plinths, and will thus enhance them.
  8. Paint Always in the direction of the thread by pulling the painting well.
  9. Apply Two layers of paint for an optimal result.

Errors to avoid

  • You will have to be precise and have a controlled brush stroke: the woodwork little forgive the errors, and the slightest trace of brush will be particularly visible.
  • If you repeat all your woodwork at the same time, start from above and progress downwards as you go.
  • If you also paint the walls near the woodwork, start by paint the woodwork and then protect them before painting the adjacent walls.

Case of old woodwork: the precautions to be taken

If the woodwork of your home is old, take the time to to treat Before painting them, using a water -repellent waterproofing and then a fungicidal product.

You can also choose to keep them natural if they have never been painted and enhance them thanks to a stain that will bring out the veins of the wood or a varnish which will bring them a certain shine.
