Do You Paint the Wall or Ceiling First? | Interior Design Video Lecture | Interior Designing: A Basic Training - Self Help Learning

so paint you think it's pretty generally
you just put it on the wall and it's
easy right but there are a couple of
tricks that you need to know when
painting a room one of the first things
is ceilings and walls which ones do you
paint first ceilings by the way even the
best experts in the painting arena hate
painting ceilings why because it's
really messy it's hard it's labor some
you're painting above you it takes a lot
of expertise and it really takes a lot
of like oomph to get it done but
painting your ceiling is the first thing
you want to do because it's going to get
everywhere and it's gonna splatter so
make sure you put your drop cloths down
and then you paint your ceiling because
it will literally get all over
everything
once your ceiling is done then you can
tape off the ceiling make sure it's dry
enough that you couldn't put your
painters tape around the perimeter and
then second to that you would paint your
walls the walls then you don't have to
worry about getting it on your ceiling
because everything that is up comes down
so remember ceilings first wall second
and then if you need to add something
like through the trim work or add any
accent painting then you can layer that
on top of the wall but you always want
to start with the ceiling first and
trust me once you do it you'll
understand why I told you so
