You’re right this is a great choice for people that don’t need to repaint their house but these days I’m painting a house right now that’s peeling because the city has forced the homeowner to paint the house and they have asked them to take off all the peeling paint so some people don’t get a choice on whether or not they have to take the peeling paint off
obviously, nobody here has studied the peel stop product. The peel stock product actually has glue in it to help keep that paint from flaking off. Also, if you use multiple codes, it helps to fill in a lot of those uneven edges.
Mad dog crack fix is unbelievable. It evens out the surface, seals down the flaking, and makes everything more uniform. Like Peel Stop but thicker. Key with peel stop and crack fix primer is USE A BRUSH-not roller. Comes out like glass. The binders work better and it lays on flatter. Also after sanding or filling, it’s great for wood siding because you can help hide the fixes and make the brush strokes look like wood grain.
I’m doing a painting job right now with a friend of mine and before I came in with a second person, my friend had hired someone else to help him before us. That guy came and used the angle grinder on the face of 150-year-old carriage, house doors and gouged them with cuts and dips some being almost an 8th inch thick It’s very important to note that when he says light, he means extremely light touch. Do not go deep. Keep it simple.
I have used both products and I am not "wowed" by either of them. The peeling paint primer was okay but nothing special really, I had wanted to try the Zinnser 1-2-3 primer because it was supposed to be better and I had seen an ad where they poured it into a tray and it was really thick looking and almost made a mound in the tray. I couldn't wait to see the difference I would experience with the 1-2-3 and a nice thick primer. Well it did not happen! I opened the can and it was like water, I shook it, I stirred it and stirred it some more and it was still just another thin primer. Actually there was no difference other than color between 1-2-3 and Kilz Premium. 1-2-3 dries whiter than Kilz Premium but viscosity and coverage and look of final product was exactly the same. I am looking for a thicker primer that may help to hide some small visual imperfections before applying my final coat and I think that is what all painters, professional or not, are looking for! Something to make our job a little easier and the final product a little better!
No you are not eating it but by sanding it you are breathing in the lead particles. Worse than that you are likely spewing toxic lead dust into the soil and surrounding yard and thus exposing the homeowners or neighbors. @@escapetherace1943
Lead based paint is a big concern, especially when using a grinder sending fine particulate airborne into your lungs and also to adjoining neighbors. it affects everyone differently, some people can be around it for years without incident and others can have consequences with a single contact...
Please help! The house in this video does not have soffits, which is exactly the situation im facing. Now the problem im having is old sun dried and chipping paint. My question is, how do i prepare this surface for paint?
Hope that doesn't have lead in it. If so, not good. Read a couple of articles about the effects of lead dust in the body and brain and what that dusk can do if kids are exposed to it and you won't do that again.
What are you using to get the areas I see scraped and what's that white in there? That oscillator (or whatever) you're only using on the edges and never touching anywhere else. I don't think that helped anything.
Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata is not right for the video. You really need to describe what the tool is you were using very lightly. I'm getting ready to repaint the exterior my very old wooden detached garage. I'm not feeling very prepared. I did see the interesting tape technique of removing stuff off the roller. The "peel stop" paint is something I'd like to know more about.
He was using an angle grinder with what looks like the standard grinder blade that comes with the tool when you buy one. I would do a quick search and ask somebody older working st the hardware store which would be appropriate for removing thick old layers of paint off of a exterior
Peel stop isn't my favorite. I like the 1 2 3 primer he was using. It's very versatile and can work on a whole lot of different projects and surfaces. Dries fast. Dries hard. Peel stop was way wayyy too runny and seemed super thin even tho it markets itself as triple thick
Same question. Is it a grinder disk (which would fill with paint pretty quickly) or is it a cutting wheel which would not soak up the paint - but instead just trim/cut/strip the old paint away from the surface?
Why not have them return it then n get the better stuff. Or what you know is better vs put the shitty shit on that you know sucks. Unless its only whatd in there budget or if it truly do t make that big a difference.
Angle grinder with probably the grinder disc that comes with the tool. You can ask when you buy the tool if what comes with the tool will work for removing paint😊
@@wonkypamela9585 - My guess, he's using a cutting wheel. A grinder wheel would fill with paint - not be usable for very long. The wheel in the video looks thin like a cutting wheel - so he could cut away the cracked paint without the wheel absorbing the paint. Side-pressure - not what a cutting wheel is designed for - but that's what it looks like in the video. Probably okay if not to much side-pressure is used.
Ignore this guy. THE first thing you should look at if it has lead paint - if it's built pre 1978 (for americans), then it's safe to assume it has lead paint. For Europeans the safe limit is more or less around 2000 (before that it depends widely on the country). In many third-world countries (sorry, 3rd world folk) it is unfortunately still sold at stores to this day (criminal, I know). No one should not put their or others' health (both short and long-term) at risk simply because they're too cheap or lazy (I'm poor too) or just arrogant to have sense to plan long-term. Folks, when it comes to your health - don't be cheap, don't be lazy, don't be arrogant, think long-term.
