Cutting In

Painting a play room for little godzilla! Interior latex.

• Should I cut in First or Paint and then cut in?
• should i paint the trim first or paint the walls first

[HayZee518]

use blue masking tape along the trim and paint trim then cut in wall paint

always cut in first.
then roll as close as possible to the trim. this will reduce the difference between using a brush and a roller. use a 3/8" nap roller for normal smooth drywall.
