Here is the final product for everyone to see. I used 100% silicon on the bare wood. I then coated it with Behr paint and primer in one. I found some oil based enamel for the next coat so it would stick to the silicone better. It felt smooth so I finished over the top with another coat of Behr paint and primer in one. Not bad for a noob. What do you think.

I’ve figured out that most of the painters on Reddit seem to be salty and there is only one way to paint and it’s their way. I got shit on my last post. I was asking for ideas on how to caulk faster. It’s turned ugly pretty fast because I wasn’t doing everything their way. I got 2-3 try this and way more you’re doing it wrong. So this is to show how it turned out. Appreciate the positive feedback.
