Paint Window Trim in 3 Minutes

What happens here

Start applying paint to the flat faces of the window trim using the 4-inch mini roller. Begin with the bottom trim piece, then move to the vertical side pieces. Use a 6-foot ladder to comfortably reach the top trim. Roll evenly, ensuring good coverage over the trim, including any drip metal at the top. The goal is to cover the surface in one coat if using a high-quality 'one-coat' paint. If complete coverage isn't achieved, a second coat will be necessary.

Goal: Apply an even coat of paint to all accessible flat surfaces of the window trim.
