When emulsion painting a ceiling with paint of the same colour as is already on, I have great difficulty detecting the wet-edge of where I have just painted. And this makes it difficult to know where to apply the paint next.
Is there anything I can do to make the just-painted wet edge show up better, so I do not end up with missed patches?
I was thinking that a difference between wet paint and dry paint is that light is reflected better from wet paint. So I wondered if it would help to get a bright, cold-running light, such as a 500W security light, and point it at the ceiling from the floor. Has anyone tried this, and did it help?
