Dip the tip of the brush in the paint and press the brush into the wall approximately ¾ to a ½ inch from where the wall meets the ceiling. Glide the brush slowly along the edge so that only the tapered tip of the brush skims the cut in. Repeat both forward and back to cover any missed spots. Let it Roll
Load up the 4-inch roller with ample paint and then “backroll” or pull the roller toward you over the brush strokes, taking care not to touch the edge of the roller to the ceiling. This will help smooth out the contours and brushstrokes to create a more uniform surface. Everyone desires those sharp, clean lines for their walls but achieving that perfect look can appear daunting. Set yourself up for success by prepping your surfaces, using quality tape, and perhaps the greatest tip of all: sealing your tape with paint or caulk. Taking the time to make sure your tape is well laid and sealed will go a long way toward getting the crisp lines you seek. Professional Painting Services
