Gather the right applicator tools. Typically, it's best to "cut in" the paint around the corners of the wall using a paint brush. The rest of the wall should usually be painted with a roller, however. A 2-inch (5-cm) paintbrush should work adequately well for cutting in the sides of the wall. Lambswool, foam, and mohair rollers can all be used with emulsion paint. As a general rule, you should use a roller with a greater amount of nap (more thickness) for rougher or more uneven surfaces. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/9\/92\/Emulsion-Walls-Step-3.jpg\/v4-460px-Emulsion-Walls-Step-3.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/9\/92\/Emulsion-Walls-Step-3.jpg\/aid6128856-v4-728px-Emulsion-Walls-Step-3.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a><br>\n<\/p><p><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>"}

Clear the area. Before painting, you should remove as many decorations and as much furniture as possible. Cover the floor with a plastic drop cloth to shield it from any stray emulsion.
