Much preparation needs to be considered before simply applying paint. For instance, taping and drop cloth techniques, sizes of brushes or rollers,  material types or dimensions of rollers or brushes (there are different sizes or types of brushes and rollers for different paints), wood care (including sanding without scratching wood grain), amount of paint, amount of paint coats, amount of primer, types of primers and paints, certain grits and cuts of sandpaper, trim cutting (the act of
painting with a brush on the outline of baseboard, moldings and other trim work), wallpaper removal, and nail hole filling techniques just to name a few.
