Want to learn how to do ceiling cut ins like a professional painter?
You can with a little practice and a few tips:
- Buy a good brush for cut ins; good brushes have sharp bristles, are fairly stiff, have flagged ends on some of the bristles to hold more paint, and have an even taper at the end.
- Do not overload your brush.
- Start an inch away from the cut in and work to it.
- Hold your breath.
- Brush at a steady pace. It takes practice but you will be able to do it, for more information check out this video series teaching lots more tips and tricks doing cut ins right here: The Idaho Painter on YouTube

The Extension Pole
This is a tool that no DIY or professional painter should go without; the extension pole. The 4-8′ version is the most versatile and will cut your painting time in half. You do not need to bend over to load your roller, climb ladders to roll walls, stoop down to roll close to base boards, and walk half as much when painting ceilings. This is our favorite extension pole from Purdy: Power Lock Pole[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
