How to Sand Painted Walls

Video Transcript

"Hi, this is Dan and we are continuing our demonstration for expertvillage.com. What we have here we have a small repair that we are doing from when the homeowner painted the line. So we are taking it and matching up the new color to their existing color. So I went ahead and I taped of the existing color and then I had to Spackle where some previous tape have pulled off some paint. Traditionally you would take a sanding sponge and you would sand off that Spackle. As you can see, we are kicking dust everywhere, we are in somebody's home. You take a wet damp rag, you wipe down that spackle. You are going to smooth it right out and not kick up the dust. It is just as fast as sanding, less the mess. Now we have a surface that is ready to be painted."
