This is an example of the painting being current done.

Thought it would provide some humor. :-)

It will all come together at the end. I presume this is a large
apartment building. Paint was sprayed, areas masked, and sprayed just
enough to prevent over spray. The finishers will come back with
brushes to do the trim work. The clean up crew washes the windows
afterwards.

You can see similar on construction tract home projects. Say 455 homes
going in a developing area.

Many areas were not masked.

That's why the overspray went onto trim, stairs, fence etc.

To do the job right, they will have to paint the entire fence unless they can get a good paint match.

I don't believe it. Painting is easy with a brush.

I'd say fainting the fence is part of the job. When we completely
painted the interior of our factory it was done pretty much the same
way. Everything was sprayed and a lot of overspray on the first pass.
Later things were masked or brushed as necessary.

The pros do things like that all the time. They know what works best.

I don't see anything there that's bad either. The trim has over-spray,
but the trim is probably getting two coats anyway and the over-spray is
a light color. Same thing with the fence, looks like it needs to be
painted anyway and that is more likely than that the painters are
incompetent. Assuming the fence needs to be painted anyway, I don't
see anything there that's unusual or wrong. They could have spent a lot
of time masking more and it would not have made any difference.
