#67704, "Sand Before Paint????"




          

I was just wondering how everyone here has gone about painting there interior pieces. Do you sand it smooth, or do you just leave it as it is and then paint over it? Just wondering! TIA

depends on what you want really. most of my interior peices i left textured, and some for other reasons were needed to be sanded flat. really depends on the look your going for...its not a must do thing

I prefer the smooth look myself. Just make sure you sand everything right.

We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires and movie gods and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very , very pissed off"

I like the stock look, but not that beige/tan color...so stock look with red and silver!

smooth! i did my textured but quickly decided to redo it smooth. it makes it look more shiny an stuff when it's a smooth surface... if you're not sure just paint and see if you like it. if you don't just then you can sand it. emoji
