  • anyone painted a bedroom two tone? other than tape and eyeballing it, how else could I ensure a good horizontal line? First time painting a room lol. Cheers

  • I'd google it, cause there must be some tips.

    I did it back in the 90s (blue and yellow). It was alright for a teenagers bedroom. I used my mum, a big spirit level and masking tape. Tbh pulling the tape off badly was what made it a less good job, so I'd try some practice runs of that.

    My gut says buy decent tape and a Lazer spirit level. You should be able to position it far enough back to give a long line.

  • Get some high quality masking tape made out of washi paper.

    If you were to use the colour combination above:

    • paint white until done
    • apply masking tape and make sure it sticks properly
    • add another coat of white where the blue will go, this means any "leaks" under the masking tape will be white instead of blue
    • paint blue
    • remove masking tape at 45 degree angle (I think, google this) as this will leave the best result
  • anyone painted a bedroom two tone?

    Too late to suggest sick fades?
