Tricks For Painting Rooms To Save Time And Money

​A great home project that you can do to freshen up your room is painting. You might think a lot of work, but cutting down the time and cost to accomplish it may sound better to you. Follow these tricks to paint your room quickly and efficiently.

• Finish all Preps Before Starting
  First of all, clean out everything that you have in the room. It makes the work easier and faster as you don’t get anything in the way. Now that you have cleared out the room, get all the stuff you’d be needing for the project. Clean all remaining dust, debris or lint on the ceiling, walls, window, etc. 
  
  
• Opting Out On Tape
  Skip taping off corners or trims. All you’ll need is a good quality brush to get a more precise paint job. You can also use a putty knife to use as a guide for making straight lines. Work carefully on corners and wipe off errors with a damp rag.
  
  
• Don’t Use Primer
  Save time and cash by skipping the Primer. They are only necessary if you are painting drywall that hasn’t been painted before or changing from dark to a lighter color. Go ahead and start painting your room without the Primer to get things done faster, easier, and more cost-effective.
  
  
• Roll Before Cutting In
  Paint a room quickly using a roller first. You make more progress by covering large areas first. Get close to the edges as much as possible. Then, you can fill up the gaps with your brush later. This way, you get more things done faster.
  
  
• Help Coats Dry Faster
  Get the job done right away by applying thin coats. It dries faster so you can lay the other layers more quickly. Light coats dry faster compared to using one thick layer of paint. You can also hasten the drying time by keeping the air moving in the room. Open all windows and set up a sizable oscillating fan.
