I decided to try putting vaseline (or you could use hand lotion) on the glass first, then paint. After the paint is dry the vaseline can be wiped off. Much easier than trying to cut tiny pieces of tape. Gail Hi

Meaning that the walls will appear lighter in color to the eye. If you want to keep a deep tone in your bathroom... color wash with a glaze that is deeper. You can use the color chart that your original paint color came from and go down the chart one or more steps to find a deeper color. You can also change the brown/gold color to a more amber or butterscotch color by glazing with an orange/gold (amber) color. Hi Robin
