Mopping new construction walls before priming with a PVA primer. #paintcontractor #painter #paint

What happens here

Before beginning to mop, ensure you have a clean, dry mop head attached to a long handle or extension pole to reach all areas of the walls and ceilings comfortably. It is highly recommended to wear personal protective equipment (PPE) such as a dust mask or respirator, and safety glasses, as the process of dislodging dry drywall dust will create a significant amount of airborne particles, as visually demonstrated in the video.

Goal: Prepare tools and ensure personal safety for dust removal.
