Picture Framing

An effect of non-uniform color that appear when a wall is painted with a roller, but is brushed at the corners. The brushed areas generally appear darker, resembling the " frame " of a " picture ". Also, sprayed areas may be darker than neighboring sections that are brushed or rolled. Picture framing can also refer to sheen effects.

Possible Cause :
  • Usually a hidding (coverage) effect. Brushing will generally result in lower spread rates than rolling, producing a thicker film and more hiding.
  • Adding colorant to a non-tintable paint or using the wrong type or level of colorant.
Solution :
  • Make sure that spread rates with brushes and rollers are similiar.
  • Don't cut in the entire room before roller coating.
  • Work in smaller sections of the room to maintain a " wet edge. "
  • With tinted paint, be sure the correct colorant-base combinations are used.
  • Factory colors, as well as in-store tints, should be thoroughly shaken at time of sale.
