16 Steps for A Painless Painting Experience


Hey there kids, today we're going to talk about the steps of painting.  It goes like this.

Step 1: Scrape.

Step 2: Scrape some more.

Step 3:  Realize that your scraping has taken off all 18 layers of paint in some spots and none in the others.

Step 4: Try to remedy the scraping issue by sanding.

Step 5: Self-diagnose yourself with lead poisoning and call it a day.


Step 6: Replace the rotten wood with fresh, uninhabited pieces.  So long little ant colony!



 



Step 7: Caulk and patch all the tiny holes, lines, cracks, and joints on the outside of the house.  (That's a lot.

Step 8: Buy more paper towels.  You used them all cleaning up in step 7. 

Step 9: Prime. Curse primer for getting all over already painted surfaces.

Step 10: Paint with chosen color.

Steps 11, 12, 13 and 14:  Repeat step 8.
 






Step 15:  Stand back and look.


Step 16:  Stop staring, there's more painting to do!
