Step 1:
Wipe wall with the clean, damp cloth to prepare painting surface.
Step 2:
Lay down the drop cloth to protect floors and use the painter's tape to cover trim, molding, ceiling and any adjacent walls.
Step 3:
Measure the height of the wall and divide it into thirds; make a light pencil mark one-third down from the ceiling; use the level to lightly draw a horizontal line at the height of the pencil mark.
Step 4:
Affix painter's tape just below the horizontal line; apply pressure to tape to ensure a tight seal with wall.
Step 5:
Using the angled brush, apply first color just inside taped area above horizontal line; use the woven roller to paint the remaining upper wall area.
Step 6:
Remove painter's tape while paint is still damp; clean up any mistakes with the clean, damp cloth; allow paint to dry 24 hours.
Step 7:
Affix painter's tape above horizontal line, positioning it so the unpainted bottom section is fully exposed; apply pressure to tape to ensure a tight seal with wall.
Step 8:
Using the angled brush, apply second color just inside taped area below horizontal line; use the roller to paint the remaining lower wall area.
Step 9:
Remove painter's tape while paint is still damp; clean up any mistakes with the clean, damp cloth; allow paint to dry, following suggested drying time on the can label.
