When painters paint interior new Pine, windows the wrong color...

6 years ago
last modified: 6 years ago

I am wondering what the professional recommendation would be to rectify this problem: we are building a new home and installed Pella pine windows, and the painters painted the interior white when they are suppose to black.

Is it okay to paint over it ? how many coats? new primer? Should they sand it down?

    They screwed up and in order to get paid they fix their error.
