PAINTING
SPECIALIZATION
Surface Preparation: Haji and Johnrey are
adept at preparing concrete surfaces for
painting. This includes cleaning, repairing
cracks and imperfections, and ensuring
the surface is smooth and free of debris.
They also applied primers or sealers as
needed to enhance paint adhesion.

have the knowledge and skills to mix and
match colors to achieve specific design
requirements or to create custom color
schemes tailored to the client's
preferences.
The workers have 15 years of experience.
PROCEDURE
1. Mix skim coat and let it dry.
Repeat process 3 to 4 coats.
2. Sand the surface after
drying using a sanding
paper.
3. Prime using a primer
(material used was flat latex
in white)
4. Gloss can now be applied
once the surface is dry.

LESSON
Concrete painting involves several essential steps,
including skim coating, sanding, priming, painting, and
various other crucial aspects. Here's what I've learned:
Skim Coating: Skim coating is the initial step in
concrete painting. It's a process of applying a thin
layer of a cementitious or polymer-modified
material to create a smooth and uniform surface.
This layer fills in imperfections, such as pits and
small cracks, and prepares the concrete for
painting. This is layered 3 to 4 times.
Sanding: After the skim coating has dried, sanding is
required. This step involves using sandpaper or a
sander to further smooth the surface, removing any
uneven areas or rough spots left behind by the skim
coat. Proper sanding is crucial for a flawless final
result.
Priming: Primer is a critical component of the
concrete painting process. It helps the paint adhere
better and provides a uniform base for the topcoat.
Select a primer suitable for concrete surfaces, and
apply it evenly, allowing it to dry thoroughly before
painting.
Paint Application: When painting, ensure that the
paint is applied evenly, using a roller, brush, or
sprayer as appropriate for the project. Multiple
coats may be necessary, with adequate drying time
between each coat.
These basic lessons have provided me with a foundation
in concrete painting. I look forward to building on this
knowledge and gaining more experience in the world of
decorative concrete finishes.

WOOD
PAINTING
SPECIALIZATION
Surface Preparation: Sir Mario is adept at
preparing wooden surfaces for painting.
This includes sanding the wood to create
a smooth, even texture, and ensuring it's
free from dust, dirt, and imperfections.
They may also apply wood fillers to repair
any cracks, holes, or blemishes.
Choice of Paint and Finish: They are
knowledgeable about various types of
wood paint and finishes.
Painting Techniques: They are proficient
in various painting techniques, including
brushwork, spraying, or wiping. They
know how to apply paint or stain evenly
and without drips or streaks, creating a
smooth, professional finish.
Sir Mario is a contractor who is skilled in
painting. He started as a sander from
Batangas and he has 30 years of
experience in the field.
PROCEDURE
1. Prepare the work area.
2. Clean the wood and sand
make sure it is free from any
dust.
3. Fill the wood with plasolux
glazing putty. Another option
can be applying epoxy
primer. Sand the wood again
after priming.
4. Once it is dry, apply a coat of
enamel paint.
5. Allow it to dry and finish with
clear gloss lacquer.

of which plays a crucial role in
achieving a beautiful and durable
finish.
There are different ways in painting
wood and there are different and
alternative materials that can be
used in filling the gaps in the wood, it
can be the glazing putty or an epoxy
primer.
Sanding is also very important and
the use of the proper paint brush to
evenly coat the wood.
These basic lessons have given me a
solid foundation in wood painting. I
look forward to building on this
knowledge and gaining more
experience in the art of transforming
wood surfaces into beautiful and
functional pieces.

painting. Israel is adept at removing rust,
often by sandblasting or using rust
converters.
Choice of Coatings: He is knowledgeable
about various types of protective
coatings, including epoxy, polyurethane,
acrylic, and galvanizing. They understand
the properties and purposes of each type
and can select the most appropriate
coating based on the specific steel surface
and its intended use.
PROCEDURE

LESSON
Steel painting is a specialized skill that involves several
crucial steps, including cleaning, sanding, priming, and
painting, each playing a vital role in preserving steel
structures and equipment. I have learned:
Cleaning: The process begins with thorough
cleaning. Cleaning the steel surface is essential to
remove contaminants like dirt, grease, oil, and loose
rust. This is often done using industrial cleaning
agents, solvents, or power washing, depending on
the extent of contamination.
Rust Removal: Dealing with rust is a significant part
of steel painting. I've learned to identify rust spots
and the importance of removing them to prevent
further corrosion.
Surface Preparation: Steel must be appropriately
prepared for painting. This involves smoothing the
surface through sanding, which helps the paint
adhere better.
Priming: Applying a primer is a critical step in steel
painting. Primers serve as a protective base coat
that enhances adhesion, provides corrosion
resistance, and ensures the topcoat adheres
uniformly. The choice of primer depends on the
specific steel type and project requirements.
Choosing the Right Paint: Selecting the appropriate
paint for steel surfaces is crucial. Different coatings,
such as epoxy, polyurethane, or industrial paints,
are used based on factors like the steel's exposure
to environmental elements, durability
requirements, and color preferences.
I look forward to building on this foundation, gaining
further experience, and understanding the nuances of
different steel types and specialized coatings.
