   • 7. Inspect and correct the finish

     After drying, inspect for uneven coverage, missed spots (holidays), flashing, and tannin bleed-through. Assess the complete area and transitions, not only the center of the siding boards.

2. Entry 013Removing Wallpaper and Preparing the Wall for Paint

   • 8. Inspect the primer and apply the finish coats

     Look for missed areas or holidays, uneven coverage, roller marks, patch outlines, and differences in sheen or flashing. Inspect the final dried coat under the work light and the room's normal lighting, from more than one angle.
