I want to talk to you about one of the challenges that so many renovators have experienced over the years. That is knowing what paint to put on top of what surface.

We all know that some paints – some oil bases can’t go over water bases, some water bases can’t go over oil base. Especially when it comes to older homes, to our doors and our trims and our sills, we find that over the years there are all sorts of things being painted on these. There’s been different layers of highly inappropriate paint often applied.

What can sometimes happen is you can apply your paint – which you think is appropriate – over the top, but years and years – sometimes decades – ago, someone has applied the wrong paint. It can forever destruct and effect what you’re putting on top.
