How to Paint a Black Wall

Lighter colors imply a little more work because we may need to cover a previous color. In this opportunity show you how to paint a wall in black. Nothing better to do it ourselves to save money (and while achieving the results of a professional painter).
Materials:
- Primer
- Black paint
- Cloth
- Roller
- Brush
- Masking tape to the edges of the wall
Step by step:
Step 1: First you must make sure your work surface is clean. Thoroughly wash the wall. Use a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Remove dirt and dust so you can paint without problems.
Step 2: Apply the primer on the wall. This ensures that the paint will adhere to the walls. First you will need to apply where the wall meets the ceiling. Paint with thin layers. Be careful not too thick but the edges will be thicker than the rest of the wall.
Step 3: Use a roller to apply the primer on the wall. Apply in the form of W. In the second round pass it into the recesses. Continue applying the primer until the wall is complete.
Step 4: Let dry for two or three hours. When paint is dry you can begin to apply the black paint. Start with the exterior. Let the first coat to dry and then apply a second coat of paint.
Step 5: Finally, stay away and watch the wall. Touch up areas that need it using a brush.
