What happens here

Before applying any paint, carefully mask off any areas of the dresser that you do not want to paint. This typically includes the inside edges of the drawer openings and the interior of the dresser frame. Use painter's tape to create sharp lines and secure masking paper or plastic sheeting to cover larger areas, ensuring no overspray reaches unintended surfaces.

Goal: Protect areas not to be painted from overspray
