How do I paint with Sherwin-Williams paint? To paint with Sherwin-Williams paint, follow standard painting steps. First, prepare surface by cleaning, repairing holes, sanding glossy areas, and removing dust. Use painter's tape to protect trim and edges, and drop cloths to protect floors. Prime if needed, especially over new drywall, dark colors, or stains, using appropriate Sherwin-Williams primer like Multi-Purpose or Extreme Bond. Stir paint thoroughly, do not shake excessively, and pour into tray. Cut in edges with 2 to 2.5 inch angled brush around ceiling, corners, and trim. Then roll walls with 3/8 to 1/2 inch nap roller for smooth walls, using W pattern and maintaining wet edge to avoid lap marks. Apply first coat evenly, let dry per label, typically 2 to 4 hours, then apply second coat for best coverage. Use quality brushes and rollers for smooth finish. Keep room ventilated, temperature 50 to 90 degrees. Clean tools with soap and water for latex paints. For best results, use two coats and follow specific product instructions on can for application and dry time.
