Considerations for Office Painting

When customers walk into your office, your space says a lot about your care and your attention to detail. As a business owner, you need to make sure that your interior paint looks amazing. How do you keep your place of work look amazing for a long time? Let’s take a look at a few ways to do that.

  • Using the Right Materials for the Job: If you have a place of business where there is high traffic and where families come, it might be best to paint your walls with a high quality matte or flat or even using a Scuff-X, something that can be easily cleaned. The higher the quality the better it will be washable AND it can be washed more often. The less shiny the better, as shine like a semi-gloss or satin will show imperfections or scratched in the light.
  • Cleaning: CLEAN the marks as fast as possible or immediately when you see them. The longer that mark is on, the harder it will be clean. Try not to scrub the wall, wash the walls. You want to limit the damage by scrubbing, so start cleaning lightly then work your way to a scrub if you have to. Use a soft cloth and water at first. If that doesn’t work add a little cleaning solution.
  • Touch ups: Now this can be a little more tricky. The older the paint, the harder it is to touch up due to wear and tear of paint over time. The flatter the paint the easier it will touch up. Paints like semi-gloss and eggshell is almost impossible to touch up over time, it stands out like a sore thumb. Matte and flat allow for easier touch-ups that are not as noticeable, if at all.
  • Maintain Your Paint: Invest in a company that maintains your property: You want your paint job to last for a lot of years, not a couple of years. If you have a company that does the job correctly the first time, it will last for a lot of years. Let Spectrum Painting take care of your office painting needs and upkeep.
