What happens here

With the floor masked, it's time to paint the baseboards. Wear work gloves to keep hands clean. Open the can of Sherwin Williams Emerald Urethane Trim Enamel (shown in Bright White, Semi-Gloss) and stir the paint thoroughly with a stir stick. Using a small angled paintbrush, carefully apply the paint to the baseboard. Focus on cutting in a straight line along the wall and ensuring even coverage over the entire surface of the baseboard. Apply thin, consistent coats to avoid drips and achieve a smooth finish.

Goal: Apply a fresh coat of paint to the baseboards.
