To get started with this, you might want to go around and prep your base boards and put tape down below. With this particular type of fauxing it's really not necessary that you have to do that, but you do need to have that clean rag handy because if you do happen to get some of the faux down here, which is inevitable and it is going to happen. You can just take your rag and wipe it off quickly, and it should come off right away.
If, also at the same time, you might want to go ahead and wipe off before you put the tape on, because this always gathers dust. So no matter where you live or what you do, this is going to have dust on it. So you want to make sure that you dust it first before you put the tape on it, or it won't stick.
Also, if you like, you can take off your switches and your plates. And it will give you a beautiful faux all the way up to the edge of these. Or you can try to tape them up- we'll just take them off. That way- it's much easier that way.
And also, to add, when you are doing your fauxing, inevitably it always happens- even to me- we're going to drip some on the way. So just make sure, very important, to wipe that drip off immediately because if you let it dry you'll have more issues trying to resolve that later.
