Deflecting overspray. Simple tip! #howto #diy #overspray #innovate #paintingtips

What happens here

Begin by carefully masking the upper wall area directly above the wainscoting. Apply painter's tape along the top edge of the wainscoting, ensuring a straight and clean line. Then, attach a strip of masking paper to the tape, letting it hang upwards to cover the adjacent wall. Secure the masking paper with additional pieces of painter's tape to prevent any paint overspray from reaching the protected surface.

Goal: Protect the upper wall from paint overspray.
