Paint Trim and Doors with Enamel or Replace?

Greg P.

Hello, I have a question on baseboard, window trim and doors. Do you guys recommend spaying the existing trim and doors with enamel white paint if it is in decent shape? The color mix I usually use is white trim with a beige or grey walls. Usually, we buy the white trim pro pack and new doors at menards, but I know spaying would be a lot less expensive and easier labor. Does spaying still look good? Please advise.

If you spray with oil base it will look terrific. Just make sure you (better yet your painters) tape it off good as latex won't stay on oil very well.
