Protect Your Space

Painting can be a messy job. So, taking steps to protect areas you don't want to ruin is essential. One helpful tip is to apply a thick layer of vaseline to things like hinges, screws, sockets, and other small areas that may get splattered with paint. This prevents the paint from sticking to these areas, which makes cleaning up much easier. This hack is easy, cheap, and can save time. Not to mention it could save you money on cleaning supplies and touch-up work.
