Make perfect seams between wall and ceiling with paint pens.
I am quoting here from an e-mail one of my customers sent me. “So I’ve had a chance to work with the paint pens some. My idea was to try and find a good way to fix the rather sloppy wall to ceiling paint line I had in some of my rooms. Some people can cut in the color on the wall against the white ceiling paint to get a nice edge. But I have trouble with that.
Of course these pens rely on gravity to have the liquid flow so I had to tip the pen down for a second or two into a rag, pushing the tip in (engaging the spring) and then paint an inch or two, and then repeat.
The picture may not really do justice, but I was able to fill in the bad spots where I was too far below the ceiling/wall junction with the wall color.
To me the advantage was that I did not have a sloppy brush or paint can/cup that I could spill. Diluting the paint did not seem to affect the color at all, or least I can not see a difference.”
