Hello, I hope someone out there can help me with some questions!
We have acquired a basement space that we will clean and renovate into an office. The space has painted concrete walls and tiled floors. The walls look nice except for a crack in the corner of one room and paint that has peeled off near the ceiling in another.
1: We want to do a deep clean. Can the floor be mopped normally near the walls without fear of moisture damage? And HOW do I prepare/clean the wall before painting? Do I have to clean the wall? (We mainly plan to paint one of the walls from gray to white and fix the cracks.)
2: Can I use putty to fill in the cracks/uneven areas and then paint over it? What type of putty do I need to use?
3: CAN you paint on such insulated pipes? (As in the picture) If so, does it require a special type of paint?
I am extremely grateful for answers to my questions and also any other tips and tricks you might have.
Check what color the walls are painted with today before you buy paint. The basement walls should not be repaired with spackel; for small jobs, husfix works well. The gray pipes will be difficult to make look nice when painting.
