Prepping a surface for painting is essential in reducing errors, increasing longevity and ensuring a clean finish. Stocking products for paint preparation can also serve as add-on products for customers already purchasing paint for their project. Offer these four products to your customers so they can be fully equipped for all their painting needs.

The DAP Wall Repair Patch Kit helps patch any hole in a wall and comes in an 8 fl oz. kit including DRYDex spackle, a putty knife, a fiber tough patch and a piece of 100-grit sandpaper. The spackle applies pink and dries white to indicate dryness and allows for quick and easy repair. 

The 3M Scotch Ultimate Paint Edge masking tape can be used to tape any edge or surface before painting starts. The acrylic adhesive allows for quick and easy application to the wall and it peels off cleanly without leaving any residue. 

Diablo Sand Demon includes a pack of three double-sided reusable sheets of sandpaper that can pair well with any spackle. The ceramic blend grit can come in medium, fine and ultra fine grit. The sheets of sandpaper are ultra-flexible and ultra-durable. 

Prepare floors for painting with the ULINE Canvas Drop Cloth. The drop cloth comes in two different sizes and is washable. It is great for absorbing spills and keeping floors and furniture clean.
