Hi all,
I'm about to paint a roof of an old QLD'er? about 40% of the guttering also needs replacing. This is my plan so far,
- I thought I would start with the painting of the roof (corrugated iron) then move down to the gutters (replacing and painting), then move onto the exterior weather boards
Here is the roof plan (comments welcome)
- Hit the roof with a wire brush or wire wheal on a drill to remove surface rust. Repair any rusted areas. Should I be doing any sealing around nails etc??
- Hose the surface and allow to dry
- Place a coat of Penatrol onto the surface possibly 2 coats
- Use a full gloss roof paint like walpamur 2 x coats
- I have a small Wagner spray gun with a flexi extension. I thought I would give that a go. I have used the full airless ($4000) type guns for interiors, however, I don’t think I need that here. Its going to be either the spray gun or a corrugated roller with extension.
Any comments or recommendations,
Cheers,
Panda
