Paint Walls Or Ceiling First

Start with the space between the ceiling and the walls first.

Paint walls or ceiling first. You don t want to paint the walls and then in a couple of weeks or years do the ceiling. Brush the paint 4 6 inches out from the corners and pay special attention to areas that can t be reached by the roller. Start in a corner and with a 2 inch trim brush paint about three feet along one wall then the adjoining wall.

If you think it needs refreshing paint it first. Begin applying the paint near a corner. When you step back and look at your newly painted walls the difference is noticeable.

Pour some paint into another small bowl then apply the paint through the same cutting in process you used for the primer. You may be only halfway done but the room. The main reason for painting the ceiling first is to prevent some issues that may ruin the end result.

Before painting any walls take a good look at your ceiling. Furthermore painting the ceiling simply takes less time. Otherwise work on the ceiling first.

However if the place you are painting contains a large area you may want to do the opposite and paint the ceiling first. Rolling the ceiling drops a fine mist of paint onto everything below. Cut in all edges including the peak.

Move quickly from one section to the next to make sure the paint along the edge doesn t dry before you roll the adjoining section. There are a few tricks to getting a smooth consistent coat of paint on the ceiling. Plus painting the walls first offers near instant gratification.
