How to Fix Paint Drips on Walls

Paint drips ruin an otherwise perfect paint job. Here’s how to fix them.

Step 1: Let the drip dry completely — never try to fix wet paint drips.

Step 2: Sand the drip smooth with fine sandpaper until flush with wall.

Step 3: Wipe away dust with a damp cloth.

Step 4: Apply a thin coat of matching paint over the sanded area.

Step 5: Feather the edges to blend with surrounding paint.
