Painters don't tape


Probably 20 years ago I’d agree. But with sprayers this simply isn’t true. Especially on new builds. Guys will spray rooms now, but especially exterior. Windows and other things are taped and they spray the exteriors with things like hardiboard.

Now, if you are talking repainting a room then mostly likely. But they still use plastic and tape to tape up furniture and what not from drips.

I have painted a LOT …and still not close to a professional….I actually have a professional in the house the last three weeks ripping out ceilings ( from a roof job gone bad…different thread )… in general he does not tape unless against stuff that he is skimming mud on for texture repair…


I use tape still when I want a clean line on the same surface or where two walls meet ( one wall one color and the adjacent one a different color)

But for where wall meets trim… as op said all about the right brush… invest in a quality trim brush and maintain it…
