Even Coat When Painting With Roller

Video Transcript

"Hi, this is Dan today we are still working on our demonstration for expertvillage.com. Now one of the other things that we need to consider when we are painting is we want to start on one side and work our way to the other end of the wall. If you do this it makes it where you can keep that consistent flow, that smooth finish without any breaks and coverage. There is also more time effective and it just looks better when you finish. I approach all my painting projects like this I would start on one while, I would work from left to right and I would go around the entire room. (painting wall) Just go back a few width on what we have already back rolled and then bring it forward to where we are. If you notice a line form when you are rolling, go ahead and take care of it. One of the thing that we are noticing here is we have a excessive paint build up on our edges. You can clean that off just by rolling and applying pressure on that edge and rolling it out. You just want to get that rolled out before those lines get to difficult to get out. Now just like with the base and the ceiling, I'm going to stay about a inch away from that casing. A inch is a pretty safe distance, you can keep pretty good control over that as well as not giving yourself a lot of time to try to cut in after you have it rolled. If you look there you can see that I have quiet a bit of paint build up right there so I'm just going to take, rolled down the wall, get some of that paint off of my roller frame. I'm going to roll that out that way I don't have more paint drying in one area where it is going to end up being thicker then anywhere else. The same with the corners you just want to stay approximately a inch away. "
