Keep records.
Always keep a record of the paint used as well as the color code. You'll be glad you did when down the road you discover you need more paint for a touch up or another coat.


Take advantage of specialty brushes.
Use an angled brush for sash areas and corners.


 
 

Paint each surface in blocks of roughly 4 feet by 4 feet. Paint adjacent blocks before each previous block dries. This will blend the edges together and help prevent lap lines. When using glossier paints, paint smaller areas at a time. Glossier paints have a greater tendency to show lap lines.
