Painting interior

[mdstudey]

I did a search but could not find an answer for this question.


Has anyone painted the dingy beige interior to white to have the interior lights reflect better? Even when on shore power it is pretty hard to do things like read or needle work. I know adding task lighting would help, but just want to make it brighter.

I just painted the inside of my trailer, I used tsp to wash down the walls, then you have to rinse well, I then put on a coat of "Glidden Gripper" primer /sealer.
waited 24 hours then painted final coat with Behr gave it 2 coats and looks great

have you tried switching to "bright white" LED bulbs in the interior lights? This is a quick way to boost the brightness of the inside lights...

I have 2 more walls to go, I had one damaged area in the corner so I then just started peeling it off the walls, on the section just above the sink I left that contact paper on and used the tsp and rinsed very well.

That white sure makes a difference against the beige. A lot brighter.

I will look into that. Thank you.

did you use the TSP all purpose?

and then rinse the walls with just water and sponge?
