10+ TIPS Painting in Stairwells and Other Tight Spaces!

What happens here

Carefully position the Xtend+Climb ladder securely on the stairs, utilizing the Ladder-Aid Pro leveler to ensure a stable and safe working platform on the uneven stair treads. The ladder should be set up so that the painter can comfortably reach the highest points of the walls and ceiling lines. With the ladder securely in place, begin the 'cutting in' process for the high ceiling edges and wall corners, working meticulously from the top of the stairwell downwards. A paint brush, potentially an angled sash brush or a gooseneck brush attached to an extension pole, is used for precision. The video shows one painter, Lucas, performing these high cut-ins.

Goal: Safely secure the ladder and paint the top edges and corners of the stairwell walls.
