Many homeowners choose Benjamin Moore Aura paint because of its beauty, durability, and low environmental impact. Aura paint is not difficult to apply, and its matte finish is very forgiving and doesn't show dirt easily. With sensible precautions, your paint job will be beautiful and professional-looking.
Instructions
1. Determine what type of area you're painting. If it is a room with a high ambient moisture level, such as a bathroom, choose Aura Bath & Spa. If it is a normal interior room, choose Aura Interior. If you're painting the exterior of your house, choose Aura Exterior.
2. Prepare your surface. Thoroughly wash and dry the walls to be painted. Find any holes and fill these with spackle (for interior drywall), wood filler, or other appropriate compound. Allow the walls to dry for 24 hours, then sand away the excess spackle.
3. Protect any surfaces you do not want to get paint on. Mask around any areas not to be painted, such as trim/moulding, shutters, or mirrors, with painter's tape. Lay down drop cloths to protect the floors.
4. Prime the walls. If you're painting a bathroom, use Benjamin Moore waterproof primer. For other interior walls, Benjamin Moore interior primer is the correct choice. Exterior primer should be used for exterior walls. Allow the primer to dry for 24 hours.
5. Apply your Benjamin Moore Aura paint. Use the paintbrush to paint around any masked areas, and finish up large blank surfaces with the roller. Allow surfaces to dry for 24 hours, then apply a second coat if needed.
