DIY How To Paint A Room - Fool Proof Guide

Күн бұрын

If you guys are followers of this channel you know I'm ALWAYS painting or repainting rooms in the house. After a few questions from friends, and you guys sending us tons of photos of your painted spaces we thought we would do a fool proof painting guide on how to paint a room start to finish. Disclaimer, I am not a professional painter these are tricks I picked up over the years. Also let's pretend every time I said "5 in 1" I actually said "15 in 1" LOL

You can use your screw driver and make some holes in the groove of the paint can so the paint runs back into the can.

Aw wrapping the roller while the first coat dries is such an obvious but brilliant tip... I always would wash it and just have two or more rollers so while one roller is drying, I use the other roller, but then I always felt bad that so much paint still in the first roller was wasted.
