Assess First Coat and Plan Next Steps

What happens here

The painter reviews the first coat of paint applied around the light fixture. He confirms that all areas are adequately covered. He mentions that he will let this coat dry completely. Once dry, he will re-evaluate the area to determine if any touch-ups are needed or if a second coat of paint is required to achieve the desired finish. He emphasizes the reliability of the Richard's Gooseneck brush for such challenging tasks.

Goal: After completing the first coat of cutting-in, the painter examines the result and notes that the area is fully covered. He explains that he will allow the first coat to dry, then inspect it for any necessary touch-ups or a second coat.
