Painting

A quality paint job begins with quality materials. Painting is labor intensive and to use inferior or overly thinned materials not only wastes valuable labor, but provides an inferior end result. R.L. Harkins, Inc. uses only top professional quality primers and paints. We do not “water down” our paints, but use them at the heaviest consistency that can be properly applied. Our painters are skilled and knowledgeable in the proper application methods of brush, roll and spray. The result is a properly painted surface. PDCA standards define a properly painted surface as follows: “It is one that is uniform in appearance, color and sheen. It is one that is free of foreign material, lumps, skins, runs, sags, holidays, misses, strike-through, or insufficient coverage. It is a surface which is free of drips, spatters, spills or overspray.” At R.L. Harkins, Inc., we recognize this PDCA standard as the minimum acceptable product. We continuously strive for an even higher standard, the utmost satisfaction of every customer.
