Give your home's appearance a quick and easy refresh by painting your window and door trim. 1  Painting the trim around your doors or windows is one of the many ways you can liven up your home's exterior. Use an exterior paint accent color that complements the main colors of your home or paint your trim white to embolden and emphasize the other colors. This guide will take you through the process of painting trim.
Complete painting prep work. When painting the trim around exterior doors, you'll need access to the stops and the jambs, so wedge the door open as you work. If you have a storm door or a screen door, remove it so it won't get in the way. First, paint the jamb and the stop, starting at the top on the inside corner and working your way down the sides. Then paint the other side. Finally, paint across the top. Paint the casings while the jambs are still wet. Mask the siding along the outside edges or, if you've got a steady hand, cut in with a trim brush.
