How to paint a house (the prep process). Pressure Washing Tips.
What happens here
The first crucial step in preparing a home for exterior painting is power washing. This process effectively removes loose dirt, dust, spiderwebs, and any hornet nests from the house's exterior surfaces. It also aids in the initial stripping of old, peeling paint. The video demonstrates starting a power washer and using different nozzle tips: a red straight tip to reach high areas and a yellow tip for cleaning lower areas. After the power washing is complete, the house is left to dry for an entire day to ensure proper moisture removal before any further preparation.
Goal: Clean the house exterior and begin paint stripping
