The room, an addition made from oak panels, had been painted more times than I could count, so prep was essential! Using a pole sander, I lightly sanded every wall to ensure the surface was smooth and ready for paint!

I wiped the walls with a damp cloth and then a tack cloth to remove the dust.

Finally, I prepped the room for the spray painter by covering the floors with paper and tapping off the trim, space heaters, and doorways with a plastic tarp and tape.

I decided to use a coordinating color on the room's doors and trim. The doors were removed from the hinges and lightly sanded before getting two coats of Degas Blue 8004-35B, a chameleon color that sometimes looks white, sometimes blue, but always beautiful.

The trim was painted by hand using the Valspar® Wall and Trim Short Angle 2-inch Paint Brush. Make sure to remove the painter's tape while the trim paint is still on in order to get crisp lines and a clean pull!
