FAQ
How do I know if my wall has lean paint that needs scraping?
If the surface leaves a chalky powder on your hand, flakes easily, or new paint peels soon after application, the existing layer is likely unstable. A simple adhesion check with low tack tape can also reveal weak bonding. We can assess the area and confirm how much needs to be removed.
Will scraping off lean paint damage my plaster?
When done correctly, scraping removes loose paint while protecting sound plaster underneath. We use controlled tools and adjust the method based on how fragile the substrate is. Any small imperfections found after removal can be repaired and skimmed before painting.
Do I need primer after the lean paint is scraped off?
In most cases, yes. Scraping exposes porous areas and repaired patches that need sealing for even absorption. Using the right primer helps the topcoat bond properly and prevents patchiness and premature peeling.
