Sealing Paint Lines on Walls

"Hi, this is Dan. We are doing a demonstration for expertvillage.com. Now we are taking and we are going to tie in to that cut line from the previous paint job. What I have done here is I have the tape sitting right at the edge of the previous color. I am now going to take the previous color, that is the color that is already on the wall and I'm going to run it along that edge of the tape. The reason that I'm doing this cause anybody who painted before knows that paint can get underneath your tape and can give you a destored line. Now it is just like any other brushing that you are doing you want to feather it out. You don't want to leave yourself a lot of brush marks and excessive work. I'm just going to go ahead and finish this, this is just to prep it to put the new color on. What that would do it would fill this tape so the new color could not bleed underneath the tape. So when we put this new color up here, we are going to have a very clean crisp straight line."
