10 Bathroom Painting Tips. A Toilet Room Makeover.

What happens here

When rolling walls up against the ceiling, adjust your extension pole so that you can just barely reach the ceiling when the pole is fully extended. This trick minimizes the chance of accidentally poking or splattering paint onto the ceiling, especially if the ceiling is not being painted. Maintain a consistent distance from the ceiling with the roller as you move across the wall.

Goal: Avoid accidentally splattering paint on the ceiling when rolling walls.
