A few painting tips from the pros to make your next painting job a little easier. Paint won't stick to window glass that's been rubbed with a sliver of soap. Lining your paint tray with a large plastic garbage bag will make clean up a breeze and keep the tray dry. A rubber edged dust pan makes an easy to use carpet or floor shield when painting baseboards.
Cheap paint is no bargain.
Buy the best you can afford. It will perform better, go further and last longer. Two thin coats of paint are always better than one. Remember to wash kitchen surfaces well before painting to remove all grease. A thin layer of petroleum jelly on door knobs, hinges, lock handles and hardware will simplify clean up later.
