Painting/Signage

Plan for 25 m^2 of painted surface

Info booth
- 2m x 2m booth
Jungle Dome sign
- "Welcome to the Jungle Dome"?
- 2m x 1m
Kitchen sign (chalkboard or whiteboard)
- 2m x 1m

Prime plywood in advance using rollers. Doesn't need to be pretty or careful; fresh plywood will soak up primer. Two coats, wait 3-4 hours between coats.

Supplies

primer (latex-bindemittel or haftgrund?)
interior semi-gloss latex paint (latexfarbe, house paint for rooms)
- Background color (5L)
- colors for the text (smaller or “sample” cans are acceptible)
Kitchen sign paint (whiteboard or chalkboard)
paint rollers: 1 roller-handle & 4 replacement rollers (if there are 2 people painting, then snag 2 rollers)
6 pack of paint tray liners (can be used without a paint-tray for one-time use)
12 pack of paint mixing sticks (more is also good)
1 paint can key (to open)
drop cloth (or cardboard boxes) to paint boards on
Brush cleaning and paint mixing containers – Clean jars or yogurt containers
Foam brushes - snag a variety of sizes (cheap extras are useful). Usually you can grab a variety pack. Get a couple extra 20-30mm size.
Paint brushes - variety of sizes from a home improvement store. Avoid "chip brushes", go for something a bit nicer. Look for packs of various size of brushes for latex paint. Largest size: 75mm but also looking for 50mm and 25mm
Towels or paper towels for cleanup
pencils to draw out designs
foam kneeling pad (ie. gardening pad)
