How to Prepare Walls for Painting in Stellenbosch

Wall preparation in Stellenbosch requires particular attention to substrate assessment on older properties and scheduling around berg wind. First, identify the substrate - lime plaster on pre-1940 properties requires different products than cement plaster. High-pressure wash all exterior surfaces. Apply fungicidal treatment where biological growth is present. Assess paint adhesion and remove all that has failed. Fill all cracks with appropriate filler. Apply the correct primer for the substrate. Never skip priming. Schedule all exterior work to avoid berg wind and summer afternoons. See our berg wind guide.

Stellenbosch Painters never skips preparation. Every surface cleaned, assessed and primed before topcoat.
