Load a small angled brush with paint
Tap off excess paint
Start at the edge where the wall meets trim, ceiling, or corner
Hold the brush like a pencil for control
Use the brush tip to paint a straight line along the edge
Keep a steady hand and move slowly
Paint a few inches at a time
Feather the paint slightly into the larger area
Reload the brush as needed
Maintain a wet edge to avoid lap marks
Cut in one section before rolling the adjacent area
Use painter’s tape if needed for extra protection
Remove tape after the paint is dry to the touch
