I have to tape off the stringers I paint as most are very dark yellowed and this technique shows the edge, it's OK for a freshener though.

[@andrewthorn1399]

Did you vacuum first? Nothing worse than a brush full of carpet fibres and all manner of contamination dragged into the finish. Tape for me. Cleaner finish.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Always vacuum and run some sandpaper just round the edge, to get rid of any carpet fluf.. no problem.. never use tape 99% of the time.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you

[@Chudz_1]

Can you do this with water base because it’s a quicker dry time?

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Yes, keep temperature down work fast, no problems. Sometimes thin when required. Thanks

[@garvielloken3929]

NOOICE!

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you

[@olliebert2788]

Masking tape saves you SO much time and fuss if you do it properly 👍🏻

[@mrg2384]

Hmmm trouble is Dulux trade satinwood is a nice finish but will be yellowed in a matter of months, i would not use on any of my customers premises.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

It won't yellow in 6 months takes a lot longer than oil gloss to yellow.. and if enough natural light usually won't yellow.. thanks

[@velviaman3206]

White on white, what about an existing saturated colour?

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Same principle really all depends on the carpet. 9 out of ten times no tape needed..

[@velviaman3206]

@@PaintingandDecorating Thanks.

[@andrewpearson9741]

Get the tape out

[@paulgaskell4224]

Just tape it not rocket science 😳

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Tape can cause problems especially using oil . 99% of the time never use tape..

[@mrg2384]

Yes tape, ive never had any problems and ive been in trade 46 years.

[@grahammolyneux4775]
