Go to hardware shop and buy if your paint usage is not more than 10 tins.
Normally contractor paint not so near to the border of the cornice. Leaving maybe 3-5 inches of space, and use the brush to paint back. I've seen some people using newspaper to cover the cornice, buts its a lot of work taping those cornices. Use the white tape, as the tape adhesiveness is not so strong thus will not peel off the paint. |

QUOTE(Chester @ Dec 1 2009, 08:31 PM) so i can do away the tape? just paint carefully at cornice area Yes you can. You just have to paint very carefully and it takes a long time to do it if you decide to paint your whole house. QUOTE(Chester @ Dec 1 2009, 08:31 PM) say if i paint wall halfway..i leave it dry and went somewhere else..next day i continue painting the rest of wall that is not painted, will i see un-balance paint or stain of the earlier dried paint? dont know how to explain Normally, this should not be a problem for paint contractor. If you never paint before, then it would be best to paint it all at once. You will have a hard time to have the correct mixture amount like your previous paint, and you will see one part white, and one part less white (if you paint in white) |
