Gold paint needs to be thoroughly blended throughout the painting process.
Painting a room gold takes a little extra effort due to the heavier particle-laden paint. The key is to keep the paint mixed throughout the painting process to ensure an even color throughout the room. To keep the paint properly mixed, an electric paint mixer should be used. This tool can be found at any paint supply store. Applying the gold paint can be done using a common brush and roller, but the application technique used is somewhat specialized.
Instructions
1. Pour a gallon of paint into a five-gallon bucket. Stir the paint using an electric paint mixer every five minutes during the entire painting process to keep the paint blended.
2. Pour a half-quart of paint into the handheld paint holder. Dip the paintbrush into the paint until the bristles of the brush are loaded with paint.
3. Cut in the corners of the ceiling and the walls with the paintbrush, feathering the paint out onto the walls and ceilings at least four-inches. Feather the paint to ensure the paint is evenly spread out over the surface area without highs or lows.
4. Load the roller with paint, rolling off the excess paint onto the roller screen. Then paint the ceiling one roller width at a time. Roll on the paint in a back and forth motion. After applying the second roller-width of paint, blend the lines between the first and second roller widths. Blend all subsequent lines each time you add a new roller-width of paint until the entire ceiling is painted.
5. Follow the instructions in step four to paint the walls in the room in an up and down motion.
