-
I attached string to the upper most corner of the wall with a thumbtack. Then did the same on the opposite bottom corner of the room.
-
I used the string as a guide for placing my FrogTape® Multi-Surface.
-
I used my thumbnail to burnish the edge of the tape that would meet the paint.
-
Remove the thumbtacks and string. Most nail holes are only on the upper part of the walls, so this works well with getting a fresh new look but painting the entire room. I painted before sunrise…so pardon the shadowy photography.
-
Then I painted the upper halves of the walls. Two coats.
-
While the second coat was still wet, I removed the FrogTape by pulling it away from the paint and allowed the paint to dry before re-decorating.
-
I repeated the same steps on the opposite wall. And now the room is a little lighter, fun and fresh.
