Painting an Accent Wall Quickly. Paint Different Wall Colors.

This is Chris Seattle painter. In this video, we're going to demonstrate how we went about in prepping this this area to get ready to paint an accent wall. And we got here and this wall is going to be an accent color. It's going to be a darker color. And then we have another miter color surrounding both edges of the accent wall. And as soon as we got here, we laid down some 9-in paper and tape to protect our carpet. And then I took quickly We want to have you got an overlapping color right here. We got one color here and then we got our accent color here. So I took our lighter color and I painted it right here. So it so it just over overlapped about an eighth of an inch and I painted it on there with just a brush. And then that overlapping color is going to take about an hour to two hours to dry. We're about 2 hours into it. And now we can mask on to this area. And we use Frog Tape or 3M 2020 tape. Frog tape doesn't bleed. It's a nice product here that seals the edges. But we'll be taking once this color dries right here. We'll be taking our frog tape and we just be masking our line right here. This was about an hour and a half ago that we actually painted this overlapping color and it's already dried up at the paint sticks and we just mask a nice crisp line right there. And then we actually use Sherwin Williams 958 clear cocking and then we'll just coaul this tape right here to seal the tape off. And then we'll paint our cut in accent color right here. We'll pull our tape off and then we'll have a nice crisp line. We've got a wall right here that we're actually working on right here. And we're doing the cut ends right here. And prior to this paint actually drying, you're going to want to do your cut in all the way down and then pull the tape. This is the process of sealing the tape with our clear cocking. Going back painting the cocking before it dries so it don't bridge over the tape in the wall. We're going to go cut this two edges in the bottom of the baseboard and the other edge of the accent wall right there. And then we're going to roll and lay out our wall. And our wall will be complete. You want to roll your wall before these edges dry, too, so you don't get any haloing. Now, the paint's still wet, and we just got done pulling off the masking. You can see how crisp the line is. And while this paint's still wet, we've left the masking on the bottom down here to keep any splatter off the baseboards. And we're getting ready to roll this accent wall right now while our top cut in and bottom cutins and side cutins are still wet.
