Drips and splatter
Hi all,
I've been adding to my newly-decorated flat with a projector screen painted on the wall (http://www.goosystems.co.uk). I'm not an experienced decorator (as you'll see . All was fine until I painted the black border. I was a bit haphazard, and there are a few splatters / drips of black on my matt mocha wall and gloss white skirting board! I've left it to dry rather than trying to get fancy while it's wet. What's the best way to rectify? Just get a really small brush and paint over the black bits? Sand the black bits? Both? What about trying to scrape them off with a Stanley blade? Also, when I removed some of the masking tape, a very small amount of paint was lifted but stayed attached to the wall - can I just overpaint it or do I have to scrape any paint that has been lifted off?
