i have a lot of trim work to do, really i want to rent a sprayer and prime everything when finished, trim and all after its all caulked, its a good size room. is this a bad idea? im thinking really there should eb a coat of primer befor ei put anything on and do any caulking but i just cant make up my mind. im sure either way will work, but whould be the best way?
Trim is typically the last step, after painting is finished. Are you asking whether you can pu the trim up and then prime everything? It's a lot easier to paint the trim or stain it, then put it up. Less taping and a lot less frustrating.
yeah i was thinking caulk would be best if applied to primer and not joint compuond and bare drywall. doest matter to me about taping or cutting in the trim as ive painted plenty rooms that had existing trim.
