Painting Walls with a Roller

Video Transcript

"Ok, the second to the last step in our bedroom painting project is actually rolling out the wall paint. And again, I'm using a smooth nape roller sleeve. Once again, you want to make sure that you're roller is actually covered with paint but you don't want too much because we want to avoid drips at all cost. So make sure you roll it out on the cage really well first and then we're going to use an extension pole here because obviously I can't reach all the way up that far. And we're going to start at one end and just gradually work our way down. So two coats of paint is standard and especially when you're making a fairly drastic change in the color like we are here. In some cases, I've had to use three or four coats. Its important to keep in mind when you're picking out a color. Ok, we're going to let that sit for a couple hours and then put a second coat on and then we'll go ahead and paint the trim after that's dry."
