STOP Lap Marks. Tips PRO's Use To Paint Perfect Walls.

What happens here

Start rolling the wall by applying the paint as close as possible to the wet cut-in edges and corners. The presenter demonstrates rolling a vertical strip of paint down and then back up, ensuring the roller extends into the wet cut-in area. For this specific job, the trim and ceiling are being painted the same color and sheen as the walls, so these already-painted areas serve as the wet edge.

Goal: Begin rolling the wall, working close to wet edges and maintaining a continuous wet connection.
