• First of all, empty the room of its furniture or
  group them in the center and cover them with a
  trap. Put down protection on the ground
  (tarpaulins, plastic, cardboard, or newspaper).
• Swaddle the appliques and anything that cannot be
  taken apart with plastic bags held by an adhesive
  tape, so the painting painters in Markham will
  not create any stain on other home furniture.
• The walls
• Pick up paintings, photos, and other decorative
  items from the wall.
• Also, remove window curtains and rods, and other
  ties.
• Protect baseboards, ceiling angles, window
  towers, and door frames with masking tape.
• As for the anchors that you will reuse
  after painting on a wall, put screws in them so
  that the paint does not accumulate inside. You
  will only have to remove them once the job is
  done

Repair Wall Remove nails and screws Once your
wall is perfectly clean, remove the screws and
use a pair of pliers to remove the nails. For the
dowels, take a screw, screw it partly into the
dowel, and with a pair of pliers, pull on
it. Filling of holes and cracks Start by making
the holes and cracks reasonable, with a
triangular scraper, knocking out any loose parts.
For the plaster to adhere properly, dampen the
area to be filled with a sponge. Apply a filler
to cracks or holes with a plaster knife. Smooth
the plaster to avoid any extra thickness and then
let it dry.  Once it is completely dry, sand the
patched area with medium-grit sandpaper. Once the
main roughness and the main defects have been
eliminated, the micro-holes must be filled.

Installation of a smoothing plaster If you intend
to apply acrylic paint, apply a water-based
smoothing filler, for glycerophthalic paint, you
will need a greasy filler. Apply the smoothing
plaster to the wall with a plaster knife,
spreading it horizontally and always in the same
direction, from right to left for example. Wait
until it is perfectly dry, that is to say very
white and without any gray area. Sand the wall
with a fine-grit sandpaper. Dust it completely
with a damp sponge. Then apply a 2nd coat. To
coat an entire room, it is recommended to start
at the bottom of the walls. The first pass should
be spread horizontally throughout the room. Then,
always starting from the bottom, apply the second
layer of plaster vertically. Sand your entire
wall with a fine grain abrasive (120) to make it
very smooth. Dust and vacuum, the wall, and the
room completely.
