  • poor, cutting in freehand is only way to do it as a professional.

  • would have been a 5, but your mic needs better pick up. :)

    As a home DIYer, my paint lines have consistently sucked. I did not realize that the paint was seeping through the tape.

    The question is, how do I fix lines that I've already screwed up?

    As to the professionals cutting in free-hand comment...that's great, if you are a professional or can/want to pay for a professional.

  • @swishseven In the end, the most effective way to correct bleed-through lines is to freehand with the other color. One way to prevent bleeding is to put a small amount of caulking over the tape and also make sure to press firmly on the tape to reduce the amount of paint that seeps through.
