My first big painting job begins at the front closets. Being ambitious and inspired by Design Star The White Room Challenge. It seemed so simple, just tape of a design and paint.............NOT.
I tape of a complicated pattern and begin to paint, buuuuuuut when I remove the tape there is bleeding. I used the Blue tape which professes to prevent bleeding and will give a you a clean line............NOT.
Anyway, I went back to Home Depot to get some help. He tells me I need Frog Tape. I pick that up and it still bleeds.
Today on the train I see a guy with paint stuff and I asked him how do you prevent the bleeding. He said "You can't, you have to take a brush and touch up. It drives us crazy all the time."
Thanks to a stranger, I now know bleeding is apart of the painting process.
