Supplies Needed
- FrogTape® Multi-Surface Painter's Tape
- FrogTape® Delicate Surface Painter's Tape
- Foam Roller
- Angled Paint Brush
-
1Prepare the Surface
Clean the trim thoroughly to remove dust and grime.
Pro Tip: If the existing trim paint is glossy, you can lightly sand it to help the new paint adhere better.
-
2Apply Painter's Tape
Use FrogTape® Multi-Surface Painter's Tape to protect the surfaces that are adjacent to the trim. Press firmly with your finger or a tool to seal the edges.
Pro Tip: FrogTape® Delicate Surface Painter's Tape is perfect for freshly painted walls like mine. Otherwise, use FrogTape® Multi-Surface.
-
3Paint the Trim
Stir the paint thoroughly before starting. Using a paint brush, paint the trim with steady, even strokes. Allow the first coat to dry completely and apply a second coat if needed.
Pro Tip: Use a primer first to achieve a more even finish and better coverage.
-
4Remove Painter's Tape
For best results, remove the green painter's tape while the paint is still wet. Pull the tape off slowly at a 45-degree angle.

5Allow to Cure
To wrap up, let the paint cure fully before exposing the trim to heavy use or cleaning.
