How to Paint Straight Lines
I filmed this a couple years ago and IT SHOWS haha.
Another piece of content I filmed early on when I was really just STARTING to learn how to film, edit, how to even talk to a camera for that matter :’).
BUT, this instruction HOLDS UP. Not only does it hold up, it’s a total approach that shows you how to cut in almost every angle that you will need to know inside:
-how to paint along ceilings
-how to paint around trim
-how to cut baseboards
-how to cut angled corners without tape
-how to cut without tape
-how to paint without tape
I chose the title “How to Paint Straight Lines” because THAT is apparently the top searched thing that has been missing from this page, and also what leads people here the most.
If I didn’t know that, I would have labeled it what the file has been called: “How to do Cut Lines”, which may have reached less of you!
More on my hate for having to learn technology to share my tips with you for a later episode ;)
