If you’re going to be painting new drywall, you’ll want to make sure to clean it off before painting as well. New drywall won’t have any stains, smoke or grease to worry about, but instead, it’s going to be incredibly dusty from sanding the joints. Excessive drywall dust on your walls can create adhesion problems for new paint and cause rough imperfections in your finished walls. For new drywall, I like to take a shop vac along with a wide floor brush attachment and vacuum the dust right off the walls. How To Clean Moldy Walls Before Painting
Moldy walls require a different level of cleaning before painting. I’ve written an entire post on cleaning and priming moldy walls that you can check out for more information on this topic. Wrapping It All Up
