Solution:
If you've been putting off painting the ceiling because
you think it's a headache. Don't worry, and don't put if
off any longer, it's easy, I'll show you!
Tape off the walls and light fixtures and cover the floor
with a drop cloth.
You'll need a ladder to do your cutting in but an
extension handle on your roller makes the painting process
a lot faster and less tiring. I also recommend using a
bucket with a paint grid placed on a non-skid pad; it's
easier to work with than a tray when using an extension
handle.
Pull a shower cap over your hair before you start you
won't have to worry about ceiling drips.
Cut in all of the edges with a wheeled paint pad, I find
this a lot neater and easier to control than a paintbrush.
Grab your roller and paint the ceiling. Work across the
width of the room rather than the length. Latex paint
dries fast so work quickly to avoid lap marks in the
finished ceiling. |
