TIPS FROM PPG PAINTS n If you are painting a statement or feature wall, use painter’s masking tape around all edges of the wall to create neat clean lines. n For brush painting, pour paint into hand held pots to make the painting easier, particularly around trims and hard to reach areas. n We recommend safely using a step ladder or an extendable roller pole when painting higher walls. n A standard sized wall is approximately 4m 2.
