Boxing Paint

Video, Painting Published 12/13/2006 by Danny Lipford

Boxing, or mixing, paint ensures a consistent, well blended wall color. First, take a clean 5-gallon bucket and stretch a piece of fiberglass screen (or any a paint screen) over the top. Secure the screen to the bucket with duct tape. Pour two or three gallons of the paint through the screen and into the bucket. Stir well, insert a roller screen and roll right from the bucket.
