Chris Perkins Painting and Decorating 2.93

Originally From the UK and have been living in Ireland Since 2002.
I began my Painting Career in 2000 when I entered into a Painting and Decorating apprenticeship.This involved working 4 days with a company and one day in college. Throughout my apprenticeship I learnt all aspects of painting and decorating but even to this day I am still learning new techniques as the painting industry is constantly changing.
Since 2010 the oil based paints as we used to know them have changed and not for the better,This is why I am now trying to used primarily water based paints. This not only benefits me but it also benefits the customer as the new water based paints have a quicker drying time,no harmful smells and stays whiter than oil based paints.
A new technique being used by myself is the use of a 95% dust free dust extraction sander,so the working environment will be a lot cleaner and the customer will not be breathing in anymore dust created from the extensive preparation.
