How Do I Paint A Previously Glossed Interior Wood Surface?Updated 2 years ago
Painting over gloss paint on doors, windows, and skirtings isn’t difficult, but it does require some time to produce a clean and consistent finish. Start by lightly sanding the gloss paint and then cleaning the surface so you can remove the glossy surface that makes it difficult for paint to adhere to. Then, apply a base coat of Tikkurila's Otex Akva or Otex Adhesion Primer to help your paint stick to the surface.
Topcoat Options
Everal Aqua 10, Everal Aqua 40 or Everal Aqua 80, depending on the sheen level required
Helmi 10, Helmi 30 or Helmi 80, depending on the sheen level required
Use at least 2 coats of paint and allow each coat to fully dry between applications.
