Use Great Paint Supplies for Your Paint Job
To achieve a pristine paint job, you have to use the best tools. That’s why Lowe’s carries a variety of painting tools to suit many different jobs. These include water-resistant painters tape, which ensures that paint doesn’t bleed into other areas and doesn’t peel off when it comes in contact with water. It’s also important to take off old paint to create a blank canvas for a new paint coat. For that reason, you’ll want to use a paint scraper with a rubber handle, which offers a reliable grip for effective scraping. All technicians and homeowners should also look after their health, which is why every paint job should be done with respiratory protective gear. Safety masks filter out toxic chemicals and prevent fine, airborne particles from entering users’ airways and endangering their health.
Drop Cloths and Tarps
Painters use drop cloths to shield furniture and floors from dripping paint, removing the need to painstakingly clean up afterward. Masking paper is disposable and affordable, making it a very convenient option for most users. Or perhaps you’d prefer washable drop cloths, which prevent constant restocking of the same material and come in durable canvas material. For heavier-duty jobs, you might also want drop cloths with 8-mil thickness. This way, you reduce the risk of any paint seeping through the material.
Paint-Removing Solvents and Tools
A new coat of paint on top of an old one can look unattractive and ineffective. That’s why you’ll want to use paint strippers, which remove old paint and its coatings while cleaning the surface underneath. Multi-surface paint strippers will do this job on any type of surface, including concrete, wood and glass. Paint thinners are also a great solvent for stubborn, oil-based paints. Alternatively, heat guns are effective, chemical-free tools for paint removal. They soften old paint and make it easier to slough off. Choose one with a hands-off upright stand feature so that you don’t risk a fire and safety hazard when the tool isn’t in use.
Paint Applicator Kits
Want to use tools that are perfectly compatible with each other? Then consider purchasing from our selection of paint applicator kits, which come with paint rollers and trays paired together for maximum efficiency. Those with synthetic blend paint rollers hold and release more paint while withstanding harsh chemicals, which is great if you value durability and faster paint jobs. If you don’t need an extra paint brush in your kit, choose one without any paint brushes. Kits designed specifically for paint jobs on textured surfaces will provide rollers made of material that lets you get in between hard-to-reach grooves. Epoxy paint applicator kits are perfect for those who need tools optimized for epoxy floor coatings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is it OK to cut in one day and paint the next?
A: Cutting in takes practice. But when done right, it yields professional-looking results. While you can cut in on one day and paint the next, it’s best to paint directly after cutting in. The cut-in paint and wall paint will blend together better.
Q: Do I need to prime before painting?
A: It’s good to prime your walls before painting. Using a primer helps the paint better adhere to the wall. It also provides a more consistent color across the wall.
Q: Do painters clean walls before painting?
A: Yes. Paint adheres better to a clean wall. The end result on a wall that has been cleaned of dust, grease, cobwebs, dirt and other debris is a smoother, more uniform surface.
