Hey All,

Any tips for painting the outside edge of casement windows? I can easily paint the edges that are not blocked when the window is open, but the edge on the crank out side is presenting an issue.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks!

It's been a while since I've painted a casement and I don't have one to look at but........ there should be little clips holding the arms that roll the window out, remove the clip and pop the arm up. This will allow the window to swing freely, giving you enough room to paint the edge.
