Step 1:
Wipe wall with the clean, damp cloth to prepare painting surface.
Step 2:
Lay down the drop cloth to protect floors; use Painter's tape to cover trim, molding, ceiling and any adjacent walls.
Step 3:
Apply paint just inside taped area with the angled brush, then paint remainder of the wall with the woven roller; remove Painter's tape while paint is still damp; allow paint to dry 24 hours.
Step 4:
Find the middle point of the wall and lightly mark 6 inches on either side with the pencil; from each of these marks, measure and mark 12-inch stripe intervals until you reach each corner of the wall.
Step 5:
Use the level and the pencil to lightly mark vertical lines the height of the wall.
Step 6:
Once stripes are drawn, starting at one end, place a small piece of tape inside every other stripe; the unmarked stripes are to be painted the accent color.
Step 7:
Affix Painter's tape along vertical lines, making sure the edge of the tape is positioned inside the marked stripes; apply pressure to tape to ensure a tight seal with wall.
Step 8:
Use the woven roller to paint between taped areas of unmarked stripes; roll as close to ceiling and trim as possible and fill in gaps with angled brush.
Step 9:
Remove the Painter's tape while paint is still damp; clean up any mistakes with the clean, damp cloth; allow paint to dry for 24 hours.
