Commercial Painting is painting that is done for a business building or store front property, basically it is painting not done for a homeowner. Commercial Painting can involve many types of projects such as, indoor and outdoor walls and even ceilings in a manufacturing plant or shop. In alot of cases even floors.
When it comes to outdoor Commercial Painting, the first thing a painting contractor would do is make sure the surface is clean. In most cases, this is done with a pressure washer and a stiff bristle brush. When the surface is finally clean, windows, sofette, and any flashing is taped off to prevent over-spray or splatters on surfaces that are not being painted. Usually, depending on weather, a “spray and backroll” technique is used to paint outdoor surfaces. The “spray and backroll” technique is when one person sprays the paint on the surface and another person has a saturated roller on an extension pole follows behind and spreads the paint on the surface as though you would for an indoor wall. This process is realatively quick and efficient. When the spray and backroll is done, someone goes over the surface with a brush and paint to ensure all the cut-in work is done and the entire surface is completely covered. The tape and paper is peeled off and disposed of. If there is any overspray on anything, it is removed and cleaned before the paint crew leaves. Finally, the paint crew picks up equipment and disposes of any trash.
For an indoor Commercial Painting project, the process is the same depending on what or if there is anything on the inside. Sometimes a business owner will opt not to allow a “spray and backroll” technique for fear of damage to property inside the building. If this is the case, the project would be completed by similar methods a homeowner would use to do their indoor walls.
