10. 🚪 Wrap Foil Around Your Door Knob When Painting

When you’re painting a door, one of the most annoying things is trying to keep paint off the hardware — especially the doorknob. Instead of spending time carefully taping around it (or worse, accidentally smudging it with paint), just wrap the entire knob with aluminum foil. It molds perfectly around the shape, stays put without tape, and can be removed in one quick motion when you’re done. It’s faster, cheaper, and way cleaner than traditional masking techniques.
