Spray and Roll Exterior Trim (Semi-Gloss)

What happens here

Once the body color has dried, prepare the paint sprayer with the chosen semi-gloss trim paint (e.g., white or a contrasting accent color). Always strain the paint before pouring it into the sprayer to prevent clogs. Use a 'swivel head' attachment on the spray gun extension for low angles, allowing for precise application on lower trim elements. Spray all trim, including window frames, door frames, and fascia, maintaining a steady hand and consistent distance. For textured trim or areas requiring a heavier application, use a small roller (e.g., a 4-inch roller with a suitable nap) immediately after spraying to backroll the paint into the texture. For precise edges and detailed areas, perform 'cut-ins' with a high-quality paint brush, carefully applying paint where the trim meets the body color. Work systematically around the house, ensuring complete and even coverage on all trim elements.

Goal: Apply the semi-gloss trim paint to all trim, window frames, and door frames using a combination of spraying, rolling, and careful brush cut-ins for a crisp, finished look.
