Fireplace makeover! Painting with high heat paint. #makeover #fireplace #homerennovation #home

What happens here

After cleaning, protect the surrounding surfaces from paint splatter. Apply high-quality painter's tape, such as FrogTape, precisely along the perimeter where the fireplace opening meets the finished tile or other wall materials. Ensure the tape is pressed down firmly to create a crisp, clean line and prevent paint from bleeding underneath.

Goal: Protect surrounding surfaces from paint.
