The Job Guide
Paint a room, with clean, even coats.
The short answerTo paint a room, clear and cover the floor, patch and sand holes, and wipe the walls clean. Tape trim if you need to, then cut in the edges with an angled brush and roll the walls in 3-foot sections, keeping a wet edge. Paint the ceiling first, then walls, then trim. Let the first coat dry per the can and apply a second. A typical bedroom takes a day.
Paint is the highest-impact, lowest-cost upgrade in any room. Good tools matter more than technique. Here's the kit we'd buy and the order pros work in.
