Painting stripes on a wall help..?


Question:im using 4 colors with 2 to be bigger bolder stripes and the other two as small ones mixed in here and there.. how do i go about measuring something like that? an advice is appreciated!

Answers:
You can get a laser line for marking tape lines. They are available at your local home improvement store. Paint one base color, let it dry, then ad the additional colors. There will be less taping this way. Use blue painters tape. It is less likely to pull the new panin off and give you a cleaner line.


Just figure out how wide you want them to be. Make sure you use a laser level to mark the lines so they are straight.
you can use masking tape just draw a stright line and put the tape stright with the line on both side and then paint in the middle of the tapes
