How To Paint A Straight Ceiling Line. Painting A Straight Line.
What happens here
After properly loading your brush and reaching the area you intend to cut in (using a ladder if necessary), position the tip of the brush about a quarter-inch away from the ceiling or adjacent wall line. Gently drag the brush towards the desired cut-in line, letting the bristles just meet the edge. Apply the paint in one smooth direction along the line. Once the initial pass is made, immediately make a second pass in the opposite direction. This two-pass technique ensures even coverage and helps create a clean, consistent line.
