Assess and Mask Uneven Trim Edges

This is Chris in BNK Painting. In this video, we're going to be showing you how we deal with wood trim work where the homeowners have gotten paint all over the trim work and how as a professional painter, we can go back and repaint this room a different color and resolve that issue to the best of our ability. And they've got green paint this woodwork and there's no way we can get it off. So, what we're going to do is we're going to take our masking and we're going to mask onto the wood trim work as far as we need to to actually cover their paint and actually make a nice straight line. It's all bled through and it's jagged looking. So, we're going to make a nice crisp line with our new paint and our in our new masking line. I'm going to take this masking. I'm going to start on this door and I'm going to take and decide how far out their bleeding is. And then I'm going to start masking that far out. And hopefully their bleeding only goes out, you know, about a 16th of an inch or an eighth of an inch at most. So I'm going to run my masking a nice good clean line. And if it goes onto the wood trim work very far, it's going to look a lot better if it's a nice crisp line with the new paint versus our new paint. and their old paint all over the wood trim work. So, I'm going to run line. I'm going to keep the a consistent same distance all the way down. And then if the bleeding's on the p base too, I'm going to just do the same thing with the baseboards. I want to mask the baseboards out about this one is about 16th of an inch or so. And I need to straighten my lines up. Just straighten them up with some tape.
