"Cutting-In" paint is the process of using a brush to trace out the area to be painted before filling it in with the roller.

Can you get sick from paint if you get cut and paint gets into the cut?

Maybe if the paint is WHITE! The above isn't always true. I just left it in cause white paint is generally bad to eat/inhale/get on a cut. I've gotten paint in a cut before, and I didn't get sick. I've also eaten finger paint. It depends on what type of paint it was, and also how much you got in your cut. A small amount of paint shouldn't do anything to you.

How do you paint the cut-in so it does not show after everything is painted?

Cut-in should technically be done prior to rolling the walls and ceilings because you want to keep a "wet edge" so when all of the paint dries, it blends together. But if you are using a flat paint, this rule is less strict and you can usually get away with doing the cut-in at any point. If after cutting-in (and allowing the paint to dry) you find that you still see the cut-in lines, (and assuming you are using flat paint). Cut-in a second time. The amount of paint on your brush is less than your roller, and cut-in often requires two coats. You will want to "feather -in" the cut-in line into your wall (or ceiling), i.e., dip your brush in your bucket and using the edge of the brush pushed into the cut-in line, apply your paint and drag it along the edge of your line, as your brush releases the paint, stroke the nearly dry brush into the wall or ceiling that you are trying to blend into, this is "feathering." If you are cutting-in with an enamel paint you will probably have to cut-in (do it twice, waiting between coats to let the first dry well) and before the second coat has dried, re-roll the wall, bringing your roller up into the cut-in line.

What is the history of printing?

Lino printing is achieved by using sharp metal tools to cut into the surface of a peice of lino. The areas you cut will be white, and the areas with paint will be the colour of the paint. Roll the lino paint on to the lino, then turn over and press onto a sheet of paper. You have a lino print. See wood cut printing for more information on the history
