ow to Repaint a Wall That is Peeling?

My old house had many walls with peeling paint. I always used to follow the steps I have mentioned below to remove all the chipped paint and repaint it to make it look as good as new and make it long-lasting.

• Prep the Area

For proper ventilation, keep your room's windows and doors open. Next, to protect your home from paint chip damage, move or cover any furniture, carpets, and other materials.

• Remove the paint that is peeling.

The loose paint can be carefully removed using a paint scraper.

• Patch up any holes or cracks.

Apply wall putty to the whole hole or crack with a putty knife. After that, level it with the wall surface by smoothing it out. Let the filler air dry fully.

• Sand the surface

Use sandpaper to create a smooth surface when the putty has dried for

• Clean the wall

To get rid of any filth or grime, clean your wall using a microfiber cloth.

• Prime the wall

Coat the surface with a layer of odourless wall sealer. You should apply a sealer made specifically for the kind of surface you're painting.

• Apply paint

Use high-quality paint that is appropriate for the surface material once the priming has dried. Using a paintbrush or roller, apply the paint uniformly.

This is simply the process of repainting a wall with peeling paint.

But if you do not want to make all the effort yourself, you can always hire a professional painter for this job.
