How to paint walls
Home & Garden • Interior Design
Once the room has been prepped, mix several gallons of paint together in a five gallon bucket. This is known as“boxing” paint because it allows an entire four gallon box of paint to be mixed together at the same time.Trim around the windows, doors, baseboard, and ceiling before rolling the walls. A high quality roller cover makes the work go faster and can result in a big difference in the finished job.While lambskin covers cost twice as much as those made from synthetic fibers, they hold more paint and are worth the extra cost. Choose a roller cover with ½” to ¾” nap, since they hold more paint than smooth covers.
