Perfect Ceiling Cut Ins. Painting A Straight Line On A Wall. How to cut in paint edges.
What happens here
After laying down the initial line, the painter goes back over it in the opposite direction to ensure there are no missed spots or pinholes. He demonstrates "drawing" the line with the brush. He shares a personal technique of holding his breath while drawing the straight line with the brush to maintain steadiness and precision. He advises to hold the breath, cut the line, and then breathe again.
Goal: Achieve a smooth, continuous, and straight cut-in line.
