(BPT) – A high-quality paint job for indoor or outdoor projects doesn’t happen by accident. Investing time to find the right tools and paint, as well as applying the right techniques, goes a long way in achieving a polished, long-lasting result that takes the least amount of time.<\/p>\n

Whether you’re a professional painter or a homeowner who is ready to take on your next project, Purdy®<\/sup> is here to help make your paint job a better paint job. Since 1925, Purdy has crafted a wide range of high-quality painting tools for Pros and DIYers alike. What started with one good brush 100 years ago has evolved into the #1 brand preferred by Pros.*<\/p>\n

To celebrate a century of painting excellence<\/a>, Purdy offers its top three tips that can help you save time and deliver Pro-level results.<\/p>\n

1. Prepare the surface before painting<\/strong><\/p>\n

Before you begin painting, prep the surface by repairing any holes, sanding rough surfaces and cleaning away dust to ensure a perfect finish. These measures can save you time down the road by improving paint adhesion and preventing the need for time-wasting repaints.<\/p>\n

To save on prep time, use a multi-tool<\/a> that is designed to remove nails, clean cracks and spread compound — all in one — to create a smooth surface before laying paint.<\/p>\n

2. Select the right tools for the job<\/strong><\/p>\n

The next step is to select the right tools<\/a> for the job. Using the right paint applicator is key to a professional-looking finish. From brush bristle and filament types to roller cover material and nap sizes, each applicator is designed for specific paint types, surfaces and project needs.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the right tools can help simplify your painting project and ensure a smooth finish the first time without time-consuming touch ups. When painting walls, ceilings and other tall surfaces, use an extension pole like the Purdy POLE+<\/a>. Designed for maximum performance, it features a secure pin-lock every 3 inches, providing twice the adjustability when compared to the Wooster®<\/sup> Sherlock®<\/sup> GT®<\/sup> Pole. This pin-locking mechanism also ensures stability to prevent slippage and increase reliability.<\/p>\n

3. Focus on efficiency<\/strong><\/p>\n

Efficiency is not just about moving quickly. Efficiency requires a painter to balance time and quality with tools built with productivity in mind.<\/p>\n

The Purdy Altitude™ Roller Cover<\/a>, for example, is made of a microfiber and polyester blended fabric that delivers an ultrasmooth, uniform application and superb hide, allowing painters to complete jobs fast. When compared to the Purdy WhiteDove™ Roller Cover, the Altitude produces a superior smooth finish with 50% more coverage when used with premium paints.<\/p>\n

Similarly, the Purdy Pro-Extra®<\/sup> High-Capacity Brush<\/a> is built to increase productivity, with a patented design that holds 40% more paint compared to the Purdy Pro-Extra®<\/sup> Glide™ Brush, when used with premium paints. This brush helps Pros finish jobs fast by reducing trips to the paint bucket.<\/p>\n
