I am painting a room of mine 2 colors and was wondering if anyone had an idea on how to do the corners of the room so that the paint does not get on the other color. I tried tape but it always leaves a spot down the wall that was not painted. Help:confused:

Taping down the wall in a corner takes special care to keep the tape aligned. The corner can be edged out with a steady hand and a brush, eliminating the need for the tape.

Go to Home Depot. They have many types of tools that will help you with this. The other option is to let one color fully dry and pick up Safe Tape to create an edge to paint the other color. That to me takes way too long and you can get an edger (flat one) that will work. Good luck!
