All the baseboards and door frames and trim in my house is stained wood.
I mentioned that before and how it makes the house look dark. My master bedroom has already gone white. The guestroom is half done {that room seems never ending} but I decided to work on the bathroom next.
It is the most concentrated amount of trim work because there are three doors in that room.
I built the saw horses and then spent a lazy afternoon doing not much else. Then I kicked it into high gear and got all this done:
I tapped the baseboards off. I removed two doors. I taped off the hardware spots. Then I put wood filler in all the gouges. I also caulked the baseboards against the wall.
Let all this dry overnight. Sanded and painted the next day.
Well I had to prime first. I prime with an oil base primer I find it to work amazingly to cover the stained wood.
I got two coats of primer on almost all the trim except one spot where I missed the need of wood filler. I also got two coats of primer on one of the doors.
See what a big difference it makes and that's still just the primer!
