Solution:

Don't want to paint yourself into a corner? How about getting stuck up or down the steps after you paint them. Well I have a solution so you don't get trapped!

For outdoor or basement steps mix a little bit of sand with your paint and you'll have a gritty surface to step on and less chance of slipping.

When it comes to painting the steps there are a couple of ways you can do it. To ensure that you can use the steps while they're drying, paint half of the step so that you can walk up or down on the other side. However, I prefer to have a nice smooth look on each step without a line in the center, so I like to paint every other step. This way you can skip steps while you're going up and down. Let those dry and then go back and paint the other steps!
