Painting Trim without BRUSH MARKS!

What happens here

After all preparation is complete, lay out drop cloths to cover the entire floor, including any masked areas, to provide maximum protection. Set up the airless sprayer. Ensure the prime switch is set to 'prime' and the pressure is at a minimal setting. Insert the intake tube into the paint and turn on the sprayer. Once paint starts coming out of the prime tube, switch the prime switch to 'spray' and gradually increase the pressure to the desired setting (around 1100-1500 PSI at the pump for fine finish tips). Wear a respirator and safety glasses before starting to spray. When spraying, maintain a consistent distance (approx. 12 inches) and speed. Start with the top edges of the baseboards, then spray the face, ensuring two coats are applied for optimal coverage and durability.

Goal: Apply paint to trim surfaces with a smooth, professional finish.

medium sanding sponge so it's a squishy sanding sponge so we're gonna begin doing the sanding first because if we'd caught first and the caulking is wet we might mess up our caulking you got a caulking gun right here so let me show you how to set up your caulking gun the caulking gun right here has a little blade in it right here if you can see when I squeeze the trigger that's what cuts the caulking tube open and so I'm gonna cut my tube open and I want it to be cut at a 45 degree angle and so I'm going to set my tube and then cut it at a 45 degree angle and I just want a little small hole I don't want to stick too much of the tube in there and you're gonna cut it at a 45 degree angle and you can see that's a small hole it's ready to go it does have a thing some like silicone caulking you have to perforate the inside of the tube first but this is latex caulking you don't have to I'm gonna set it in there I want my 45-degree angle facing down set it in and it's ready to go to caulk well we'll do the sanding process first and then we'll begin caulking I use when I talk I use a sponge and you can feel it's wet the sponge is wet so when you're wiping your excess caulking off it'll be on your finger and then you can just wipe your finger onto your sponge it keeps your finger wet and it gets keeps um gets the excess caulking off but with a wet finger it smoothes the caulking off a lot better but let's do the sanding we've got the sander right here and all you got to do just run around and feel if there's any you know rough stuff it's all rough right here and solve this start sanding that I don't need to have it up very high speed and just you don't want your sander to hit the tape because if it hits a tape it's gonna tear the tape up and we'll have to re-tape so just cruise right along the baseboards let's get those sanded I'll show you right here here's a corner let me show you McKenna so this corner right here you can see how it wasn't cut very well let me show you what it looks like see how it and it's not caught very well there's a big crack right there these are sharp corners we're gonna make that corner look a lot nicer now you can see that see how the corners and nice and round it and when it did that's going to look so much nicer just a little bit of work one minute and that corner is going to look like a professional did it all right McKenna so the final step to this process is we're gonna be caulking the tops of the baseboards and anything else that…
