Way to Paint The Walls

Before starting any kind of painting you have to be sure your wall is clean. I prefer washing the wall, and then dry the wall after washing.

You should start your wall-painting by edging

Paint a 2-inch strip with a brush, starting at the ceiling. Repeat the same in the corners, the bottom of the wall, around any kind of edging, doors and windows, around cabinets, outlets, switchboards, vents…etc.

Use masking tape to protect everything you don’t want it get painting then cover the floor, and furniture.
