Hi Holly!

That was the tricky part. I used white paint in a satin finish and dabbed a little bit on my finger and covered the hole. Then went over it gently with a damp piece of paper towel. Honestly I think it might have been easier to just do a quick coat of paint over the whole thing once you are done 🙂

And how did you match the pre painted wood for nail holes?

Hi Joan!

I fill the hole with paintable caulk by dabbing a tiny amount on my finger and then filling the hole. Then once it’s dry, I go back and put a dab of the paint color on my finger and swipe paint over the caulk to cover it up 🙂

Whenever I fill nail holes, I have to apply another coat of paint.

Hi Lisa!

No you don’t have to paint the wall behind the planking because the wall doesn’t show through at all. The planking is designed to have a gap but the piece below covers up the gap underneath.

Would you have to paint the wall behind the shiplap white or does the overlap cover the wall? I’m trying to save myself some work!

I can think of 6 walls in my house that I want to do this too!! Did you have to cut the bottom piece down, width-wise, to make it fit just right? That is the part that worries me, I will totally screw it up. :).

Oh I know!! Those stickers drove me crazy! I just pulled them off very carefully and I got them off. I think goo be gone would work to get the residue off! Send me a picture of your basement. I would love to see it! jennifer.hadfield@yahoo.com

So I was inspired by your room and went and bought these planks to do a room in our basement. My hubby did a fabulous job. The only thing I didn’t like was the dang stickers on the front of the planks!! They were such little boogers to get off and they left a sticky residue. How did you remove yours and the residue?
