Removing flaking house paint

Exterior wall coatings are only as good as the amount of preparation carried out before their application. This video, the first a series, shows a team removing flaky paint with a compressed air needle gun.

…….ok so its not exactly an Oscar nominee video (!) however we have posted it to give you a good idea about how paint is removed. Masonry paint only has a short lifespan and is prone to cracking, peeling and flaking, hence why we remove flaky paint prior to applying wall coatings.
