Avoid "Frenching the Trim"

What happens here

Avoid the technique known as 'frenching the trim,' which involves painting only the face of the trim and not its visible sides. For exterior trim, such as window frames or door jambs, the sides are often exposed and visible from different angles. Leaving these unpainted or only partially painted results in an incomplete and unprofessional look. Although some might attempt this to save time, it is highly time-consuming and labor-intensive to do correctly (which involves precise masking and cutting to avoid visible unpainted edges), and professionals would typically charge significantly more for such a specific and often unsatisfactory request. For a truly professional and durable finish, ensure all visible surfaces of the trim are properly painted.
