  • Look for Imperfections – It’s common for new drywall to have a few imperfections. Take the time to look closely and sand down any rough edges.
  • Clean the Walls – Using a soft cloth wipe down the walls to remove debris, and once the dust settles, mop the floors.
  • Sweep up any remaining dust.
  • Do a final wipe down of the walls with a damp cloth.
  • Apply primer that is specifically made for new drywall.
