What happens here
Paint the edges around any vertical architectural features, such as pillars or wall recesses. This requires careful brush control to maintain a straight line along the feature's edge, separating it cleanly from the main wall color. Pay attention to both sides of the feature.
Goal: Paint precise edges around vertical trim or pillars.
