Fig 15 Base boards are painted. Pull back drop cloth, apply 1" masking tape to carpet next to base boards. You may want to use a low tack tape because when the tape is removed it can pull carpet fibers

Fig 16
Use a piece of cardboard to cover area between the tape and the drop-cloth as you paint the baseboard. Move the cardboard along as you continue. Do not apply paint thickly at the lower part of the baseboard and try to cut in as well as possible, because it is quit likely the paint will leak through at the edges of the masking tape if you are not careful . Allow paint to set up and carefully remove tape If you prefer not to use tape you may want to try a carpet shield. |
