No tape. Just skill 😮🔥Hand cutting walls and trim the RIGHT way
What happens here
Approach areas around electrical outlets or light switches by carefully cutting in with the angled sash brush. Since the cover plate is removed, you only need to paint up to the edge of the electrical box or the trim if it's integrated. Be precise to avoid getting paint inside the box or on the switch components.
Goal: Achieve a clean paint line around electrical fixtures.
