Installing Exterior Window Trim. The Idaho Painter Way.
What happens here
Begin by removing any old or excess cured spray foam sealant from around the window frame using a utility knife. Carefully scrape off any remaining sealant and remove any protruding nails to ensure the surface is clean and flat for the new trim installation. The worker also uses a power scrubber for more stubborn areas. Wipe down the area with rags or wipes to remove debris.
Goal: Prepare the window frame by removing old sealant and obstructions
