Surface Preparation for Repainting
Paint that is chipping or peeling must be removed before repainting. Failure to do so will cause the new paint to fail. Loose paint can be removed with a wire brush steel wool or coarse sandpaper. Then the surface should be smoothed with finer sandpaper, especially the patch edges. All bare wood surfaces exposed to air should be wiped with turpentine or mineral spirits.
Window sash maintenance to prevent rot and rust
Periodic checks on window putty can prevent sash rot and rust. If putty separates from glass, replace it after priming, and apply a fresh coat before reputtying. Allow several days drying before painting to stop wood soaking up oil in the putty.
