Plan out your space.

Because I was working with a grid, I took some time to determine the measurements of each square and which colors would go where.

Tape off the lines with green Frogtape.

With the help of a laser level tape off every OTHER horizontal stripe. With the help of the laser level, tape off every other vertical stripe.

Paint The First Taped Off Squares.

For this step, I referred to the grid I had made in Step 1 to help me with all the various colors. I mixed some of the white wall color in with each of the sample pots to give me more color options.

With smaller brushes, paint the taped off squares being careful not to overload your brush and to paint away from the tape edges. Some colors will require a second coat of paint for solid coverage. Let the paint dry.

Peel Tape.

Start peeling tape at a 45 degree angle.

Repeat steps 3 and 4.

Continue taping off the remaining squares and use FrogTape® Delicate Surface for newly painted surfaces.

Tape off patterns with yellow tape on scattered squares.

• Tape Off Patterns.
• Examples include: diagonal tape lines, stripes, semi-circles, circles, grids, triangles, etc. Paint over taped off patterned squares.
