Step 1: Prep the Walls

Lay out rosin paper and tape down.

Tape off door, window trim and baseboards.

Step 2: Paint Corners and Edges of Upper Walls

Cut in corners and edges and with an angle brush.

Apply the rest of the paint with the roller.

Step 3: Tape off Around Lower Walls

After the upper walls have dried, tape off the top edge to make a clean line.

Step 4: Cut in Edges of Lower Walls

Cut in using an angle brush with 1669 Saratoga Springs in a pearl finish.

Tip: Using a lower sheen such as pearl or eggshell will help hide flaws on older paneling and trim.

Step 5: Apply Paint to Lower Walls

Roll paint on the panels with the small foam rollers.

Step 6: Paint the Trim

Cut in with angle brush to paint the trim.

Carefully remove tape, before paint is allowed to dry to keep paint from peeling.
