What is the best way to get defined lines from wall to ceiling & wall to floor molding?
Here is the procedure that I use with great success. 1. Caulk the joint between the wall and the ceiling. Smooth caulk with a wet finger. You just want to eliminate the “corner” and the build-up of the texture and create a smooth line. 2. Paint the ceiling, caulk and a bit down the wall (an inch or two). 3. Use painters tape (blue or new green stuff) to tape a straight line along the wall/ceiling joint. Try to shy a bit towards the ceiling. 4. Paint the edge of the blue tape that is towards the floor with the same color as the ceiling paint. This will “seal” the edge of the tape so the wall color does not seep under the tape. 5. Then paint the wall color over the same edge of the tape. 6. Let the paint DRY. Most people say to remove the tape when the paint is wet, but I had better success when the paint is dry. 7. If the tape was too far down the wall and you see too much of the ceiling corner along the edge, just repeat the process with the tape up a bit more towards the ceiling. Emai
