DIFFICULTY RATING:
(1 out of 5 - Beginner)
Excessively tall staircase paint jobs that require scaffolding might be best left to the experts. For moderately tall jobs, a few easy steps will have the walls and ceilings looking new in no time.

Step 5: Paint the edges of the walls.
Use a sash brush to "cut in" to the edges where the wall meets the ceiling. The bristles on the sash brush are cut at an angle, allowing you to guide the brush along the edge of the ceiling without the need for masking tape. Only dip the sash paintbrush 1/2-inch into the paint, and gently remove excess paint from the sides of the brush. Use slight pressure when cutting in, and work slowly.
 Use the edge of the sash brush to cut in where the wall meets the ceiling.

| WARNING! When painting on a ladder or platform, thoroughly check that the ladder and platform cannot slip. If you are uncomfortable with the process, hire a professional. Wear old clothes, protective gloves, hat and goggles when painting. |
