Colorful rooms simply conjure up a beautiful atmosphere in your own four walls. For this, the walls 'only' need to be painted. Here we have plenty of tips to ensure that painting like a pro succeeds:
Tips for painting walls
Make your own splash guard for painting
So that your whole hand doesn't always get splattered when painting with a brush, you can easily make a splash guard yourself: cut out a piece of cardboard round or square and cut a hole in the middle that must be as large as the brush. Then simply put it on the brush and nothing will splash or drip anymore!
Paint bucket lid no longer sticks
Annoying, when you want to put the lid back on after painting, the whole rim of the paint bucket is usually covered with paint splatters. So that this doesn't remain a nuisance, simply cover the rim with masking tape before using. You can easily peel this off after work and the rim remains clean.
Painting a ceiling with headgear
Attention DIYers: when painting a ceiling, you should definitely wear headgear – this saves your hair from paint splatters.
Keep leftover wall paint
When painting, there is often some paint left over, and to be able to carry out touch-ups, you like to keep it. To make these leftovers last longer, place cling film over the opening and then put the lid on.
Always have the right color at hand
To always have the right wall color at hand, whether when buying more or when decorating: Paint every Color that you used for Painting onto a sheet of paper, so you always have your wall colors ready and won't experience any nasty surprises.
