Second Task - Painting

The house was owned by an older lady who passed away, hence a lot of cosmetic maintenance has not been done recently. The rooms don't appear to have been painted in many years. From what I can tell there are two layers of colors indicating it has been repainted only once in the last 50 years. The bottom layer is green and most likely lead based paint, so I intend to be very careful when sanding. Here is what the living room currently looks like (note the asbestos floor tiles):


Currently the walls and ceiling are painted a yellowish off white and there are many stains and marks. After a quick trip to home depot we have decided to paint the walls in the good old Swiss Coffee, the ceilings in pure white, and the trimming in pure white gloss to freshen and brighten up the house. Steps to painting:

1) Use spackling paste to fill any holes, sand down (wearing a mask) when dry.
Swiss Coffee Walls:
2) Paint all edges with a paint brush.
3) Roller the large inner sections.
Pure White Ceiling:
4) Masking tape the edge where the Swiss Coffee meets the ceiling.
5) Paint the ceiling edges.
6) Use a roller on a pole to paint the inner ceiling.
Trimming/Doors/Skirting Board:
7) Masking tape the edge where the Swiss Coffee meets the trimming.
8) Paint the trim with primer (The skirting boards are very smooth and this helps with adhesion).
9) Apply the gloss paint with a small ultra smooth roller.

Every inch of the house needs repainting, so I expect this job will take us a number of weeks, I will post pictures as I go.
