Pro Tips

  • **Moisture Resistance**: Choose moisture-resistant paints - laundry rooms have high humidity from washing and drying.
  • **Ventilation**: Ensure adequate ventilation during and after painting - moisture control is critical.
  • **Chemical Resistance**: Select paints that resist detergent splashes and chemical exposure.
  • **Easy Cleaning**: Use washable finishes - laundry rooms need frequent cleaning.
  • **Mold Prevention**: Consider mold-resistant primers and paints in high-moisture areas.
  • **Appliance Protection**: Properly protect washers, dryers, and utility connections during painting.
  • **Surface Preparation**: Clean all detergent residue and lint before painting for proper adhesion.
