Hand brushing sometimes is necessary! #painting #painter #handbrush

What happens here

Once all paint has been applied and has dried sufficiently (refer to paint manufacturer's instructions, typically an hour for latex paint), carefully and slowly peel away any painter's tape that was applied, such as the green tape seen along the baseboards. Pull the tape at a 45-degree angle to reveal crisp, clean lines between the newly painted walls and the protected trim.

Goal: Reveal clean, sharp lines by removing tape.
